Dearly departed-from-Idol Paula Abdul’s early ’90s hit “Opposites Attract,” of course.

That would be “London Calling” by The Clash.

‘Beatlemania’ and ‘zombies’ were both giveaways, at least for me. The lyrics are so much more distinctive than, say, that Paula Abdul song.

Second one is “Opposites Attract”, one of the worst songs ever recorded.
