Nice! The Elvis Costello tune makes a perfect companion peace... I mean piece.
I've always been partial to Nick Lowe's version of "What's So Funny," which is less manic than Elvis Costello's. I suppose if I were to extend the theme of "Questions to Ask," I should have included Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On?"
Funny you should mention that... I considered "What's Going On" as well, but I kept worrying about straying into "easy cliche" territory (not that I didn't anyway). But I', loving everything youre choosing, both familiar and not. I'm having fun following this. :) And... it distracts me from following the polls too closely!
