Which of these songs inspired the Casey Kasem Snuggles meltdown? He never actually says the song title in the bit, just called it one of “those uptempo goddamn numbers”.

XP "Shannon", which is about Carl Wilson's dead dog. The uptempo song in question apparently was "Dare Me" by the Pointer Sisters.

Finally sitting down w/the Spotify list...for the longest time I thought that Marmalade song was one of the Frankie Valli/Four Seasons comeback hits.

Given that like 3% of my total music-related synapses are “Right back where we started from,” i’m preparing to be, welp.

"I'd Really Love to See You Tonight" (Parker McGee) – 2:37

2:37! And yet there's nine parts: verse, verse, chorus, verse, chorus, bridge, chorus, chorus, chorus.
