His songs all make me melancholy. They are good, but prepare to feel sad afterward.

I remember his television show as a young child.

I'd love to have Wierd Al do a polka or rap of one of these songs. It might help counter their normal effect.

“Honey” is from 1968, not 1969.

The Smothers Brothers did this one on their show. I believe Dick sang it straight as the “Honey Husband” giving a tour of the original “Honey House.” In the gift shop afterward they sold “Honey I Miss You” buttons and “I Want to Be With You” pillows.

I hated his songs. Pathos downers. But then, I hated lots of tenny bopper bubble gummer music from the late 1960s.

One of the most horrifically mawkish recordings of all time.

I have an urge to drive a stake through the heart of this thread. Each song mentioned made me puke then and now.

“And Honey I miss you...”

If it is in my brain all day, I am putting it in everyone’s brain. Consider yourselves queer song cursed.

:-)

First Honey I was at work and she died in my parents driveway. Dad couldn't bring her back with CPR it was too massive. Second Honey I was beside her at her passing. Goldsboro did a few more hits like Watching Scotty Grow and Mississippi Line. He was also a guitar player for Roy Orbison. I can relate to the song and sometimes Daisy a Day.

Bobby Russel actually wrote Honey and several other hits such as The night the lights went out in Georgia, Little Green Apples, and my favorite Saturday Morning Confusion.
