I used to get mixed up/zoned out and mindlessly sing, 'why do birds fall down from the sky?' -- maybe the star/moondust was toxic. |

Birds suddenly appear because life, much like Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, is cursed with a horrendous amount of pop-up and low draw distances. |

I have been horribly wounded reading the syrupy sweet lyrics to these long and thankfully forgotten pop songs. my brain is overwhelmed with nostalgia and my skin has a certain creepy crawly sensation.
Please dont anyone start any threads with the Osmonds Puppy Love or heaven forbid Sammy Davis Jrs. Candyman.
aaaargh.

The Carpenters can kick the Captain and Tennille's asses.
by the way, the Carpenters first hit was a cover of a Beatles tune. |

Hoops,
I'll lay off the two songs you mentioned but I can't promise that I won't invoke One Bad Apple or the theme song to Baretta.

I thought "Ticket To Ride" went higher..I sit corrected...will you count "Please Mr. Postman" then as a Beatles cover? that went much higher for the Carpenters. |

PMP went to # 1 in 1974, four years after their first chart release, which was T2R.
Their second release, Close to You, went to # 1.

In search of some sanity I can offer this 70's gem from the Temptations -
It was the third of September.
That day I'll always remember, yes I will.
'Cause that was the day that my daddy died.
I never got a chance to see him.
Never heard nothing but bad things about him.
Mama, I'm depending on you to tell me the truth.
And Mama just hung her head and said,
"Son, Papa was a rolling stone.
Wherever he laid his hat was his home.
(And when he died) All he left us was alone."
"Papa was a rolling stone, my son.
Wherever he laid his hat was his home.
(And when he died) All he left us was alone."
Well, well
Hey Mama, is it true what they say,
that Papa never worked a day in his life?
And Mama, some bad talk going around town
saying that Papa had three outside children and another wife.
And that ain't right.
Hey, talk about Papa doing some store front preaching.
Talked about saving souls and all the time leeching.
Dealing in debt and stealing in the name of the Lord.
Mama just hung her head and said,
"Papa was a rolling stone, my son.
Wherever he laid his hat was his home.
(And when he died) All he left us was alone."
"Hey, Papa was a rolling stone.
Wherever he laid his hat was his home.
(And when he died) All he left us was alone."
Ugh
Hey Mama, I heard Papa called himself a jack of all trades.
Tell me is that what sent Papa to an early grave?
Folks say Papa would beg, borrow, steal to pay his bills.
Hey Mama, folks say that Papa was never much on thinking.
Spent most of his life chasing women and drinking.
Mama, I'm depending on you to tell me the truth.
And Mama looked up with a tear in her eye and said,
"Son, Papa was a rolling stone. (Well, well, well, well)
Wherever he laid his hat was his home.
(And when he died) All he left us was alone, lone, lone, lone, alone."
"Papa was a rolling stone.
Wherever he laid his hat was his home.
(And when he died) All he left us was alone."
"I said, Papa was a rolling stone. Wherever he laid his hat was his home.
(And when he died) All he left us was alone." |

Did you hear what Karen Carpenter's ex-boyfriend said to her before she died?
"Lose a few more pounds and maybe I'll go back out with you." |
