Hello Alan!

 AA>> See if you can name the 2nd tune!

 AI> Jack & Diane, by Mellencamp.

I'm now thinking that maybe Simply Red's version of that track,  
"The Air That I Breathe", is kinda like an homage to "Jack &  
Diane"? The reference would fit. The rhythm of Mellencamp's  
song is all through Simply Red's version.

A wikipage reference says:

"The Air That I Breathe Reprise" samples "Jack and Diane" by  
John Mellencamp.

But there is no mention of the pop/click in Neil Young's song  
of Track 1.  :(
