Can't You Tube at work, but if you don't know the song then God help you.
Surely these guys are filthy rich just from royalties.

This is the Spencer Davis song that all the local bands were playing back in the late 60's early 70's: I'm a Man....

I think I've seen Flight of the Phoenix, Notting Hill and Soul Surfer all in the last 3 months and plus it is on the Ameriprise Commercial. I finally decided to look it up and couldn't believe how many movies it has been in.

Great song and the only version that's really worth a crap is the original.
