Make that four.
I've always like Manfred Mann in all of his incarnations and styles.
Maybe he's on to something. I never had any clue what anyone was saying until I looked up the lyrics, after thinking "What is that song even about?" about 1000 times. Unfortunately looking up the lyrics didn't help with any kind of understanding.
I still just sing (under my breath) 'Blinded by the light, doo doo doo doo doodoo doodoo in the night."

You can't? I have to confer with some females about this.
