Apparently there's an extended version of Young At Heart although quite how anyone could stomach more than twenty seconds of either of these annoying dullards is beyond me.
So have your say...  (I've made it so folks can vote positively too)

"Young At Heart" has an a-melody that all-too-closely resembles Queen's "Radio Ga Ga", which came out right before it, but I honestly still love the piece a lot. It's a distinct production with lyrics that I think convey a strong message.
"Cotton Eye Joe" is mindless fun, but certainly nothing of sophisticated value, not to mention it's just a eurodance cover of an old American folk song.

There'll be someone, somewhere, in the summertime that loves both!

"Young At Heart". I actually like "Cotton Eye Joe", to be honest.

What saves Cotton Eye Joe, and pretty much all others like it, is that there's not an ounce of seriousness in it.

Young at Heart is very typical folk rock with some country tendencies (mostly the fiddles giving me that feeling), almost bordering on usual americana fare despite the group being from the UK.
Cotton Eye Joe is the annoying type of eurodance I honestly don't find very catchy or endearing but only just grating (hurr durr Europeans are better at eurocheese than Canadians). Plus it butchers a timeless appalachian classic at that (do yourself a favor and go listen to the Burl Ives' cover of it).
Not a huge fan of the first but Ill go with it
