\"Suspicious Minds\" is a song written by Mark James aka Francis Zambon in 1968. It is a song about being trapped in a mistrusting and dysfunctional relationship. Originally, and most notably, a hit for Elvis Presley in 1969, \"Suspicious Minds\" was widely regarded as the single that jump-started Presley\'s career after his successful \'68 Comeback Special. It was his eighteenth and last number-one single in the United States. Rolling Stone later ranked it #91 on their list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. In 1986, the band Fine Young Cannibals\' cover version of the song, which featured backing vocals by Jimmy Somerville, reached #8 on the UK Singles chart.
\"She Drives Me Crazy\" is a song recorded by the Fine Young Cannibals, included on their 1989 album \"The Raw and the Cooked\". The song peaked at #5 in the band\'s native UK in January 1989 before hitting #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the U.S. on April 15, 1989. It also made number 3 on the Dutch Top 40. A remixed version was released in 1997.
\" Good Thing\" is a song recorded by Fine Young Cannibals, the second single pulled from their album \"The Raw & the Cooked\". The song was their second U.S. number one, topping the Billboard Hot 100 on July 8, 1989. It also peaked at #7 on the UK singles chart.The song made its first appearance in the 1987 film \"Tin Men\". Fine Young Cannibals portrayed a nightclub band in the movie, performing this song and three others (including the single\'s b-side \"Social Security\"). The film is set in Baltimore in 1963, and the song\'s retro-soul style is consistent with that setting.
\"Don\'t Look Back\" is a song by Fine Young Cannibals. It was released as the third single from the band\'s 1989 album \"The Raw and the Cooked\". The song reached the top 40 charts in the United Kingdom, United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

It reached number eight on the Singles Sales chart, number 18 on the Hot 100 Airplay chart, and number nine on the Modern Rock chart. The song peaked at number 10 on the Canadian Singles Chart in October. It also reached number 34 in the UK, number 23 in New Zealand, and number 38 in Australia.
\"I\'m Not the Man I Used to Be\" is a song by Fine Young Cannibals. It was released as the fourth single from the band\'s 1989 album \"The Raw and the Cooked\". \"I\'m Not the Man I Used to Be\" entered the UK Singles Chart in November 1989 and spent eight weeks on the chart, peaking at number 20.
