"Baker Street" is a ballad by Gerry Rafferty, first released in 1978. It is a compassionate meditation on people who are living life stuck in a rut and meeting with profound disappointment. The heavily produced arrangement is especially famous for its saxophone solo. With its clearly enunciated singing, the lyrics are also memorable. Named after the famous London street of the same name, the song was included on Rafferty's second solo album, City to City, which was Rafferty's first release after the resolution of legal problems surrounding the formal breakup of his old band, Stealers Wheel in 1975.
A readers' poll conducted by Rolling Stone in 2008 placed it among the "100 greatest guitar songs of all time", and established artists covered it in the 1990s and 2000s.

Living Next Door to Alice" is a song co-written by Nicky Chinn and Mike Chapman. Originally released by the Australian vocal harmony trio New World in 1972, the song charted at # 35 on the Australian chart. The song later became a worldwide hit for the band Smokie.
The song is about a young man's long-standing crush on Alice, the girl next door and neighbour of 24 years, which is left unrequited after she moves away. The protagonist had seen a limousine parked at Alice's home and begins to reflect on childhood memories and his friendship with Alice, and becomes heartbroken as he sees Alice get inside the limousine.
As he watches the car drive out of sight, the protagonist feels regret about two things: 1. Alice leaving without explanation; and 2. That, in 24 years, he never took the opportunity to express his feelings for her.
Another female character in the song is Sally, another longtime neighbour of the main protagonist who is introduced early in the song. In the song's first verse, she reminds the protagonist of Alice's impending departure. Sally, who later tells the man that he now must get over Alice, then states that she is available. But the man fails to acknowledge her and reaffirms that he'll "never get used to not living next door to Alice."

"Everytime You Go Away" is a song written by Daryl Hall and covered by Paul Young in 1985. Young's version hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100 on July 27, 1985. It remains his only number-one hit and one of only two top 10 hits he had on the U.S. pop singles chart. It also topped the U.S. adult contemporary chart for two weeks. The song peaked at No. 4 in the UK, Young's home country. The song won Best British Video at the 1986 Brit Awards.
Young's version features a haunting combination of echoed piano, Pino Palladino's distinctive fretless bass and an electric sitar, the latter a long-neglected instrument by the mid-1980s
