Semisonic (?)
Cast Your Fate to the Wind was by Vince Guaraldi . . . Apparently the James Gang used in in a song of theirs? I wasn't familiar with that.

Closing Time is by Leonard Cohen - my parents had a record of The Sandpipers singing Cast Your Fate to the Wind (that's the version that I remember).
Is Juke Box Hero by Foreigner?

JulieH, my mind usually goes to the most "rockin'" answer first.
LindaKR, I could only think of the Semisonic version also.
Those Were The Days = Mary Hopkin (Hopkins?)
(I also remember one by the same name that was the theme to "All In The Family" t.v. show...no idea who that was by tho'.)
