Just an FYI. If you are ever in a grocery store, and they have a customer rewards program that offers lower prices for members, they usually allow you to enter your phone number, use the local area code and “Jenny’s number”, and you will most likely get the discount.

Would be fun to pick a day and time and have everyone call it repeatedly to jag the NSA again.

Lots of top 40 songs about phones back in the 1970’s. You gotta be getting up there to remember “Echo Valley 2-6809”, maybe not so old to remember “Don’t Call Us, We’ll Call You” (which is hands down the coolest video from the 1970’s on youtube). The touch tones in that one reached CBS Records as a vengeful practical joke.

Never would have thought Fred Flintstone would liked this kind of music.

[jiggyboy]

He would be more of a fan of the Stones, of course.

Wilson Pickett - 634-5789

Also, Squeeze had one in the late 80s.

That leading < is just so precious :)

[Dr. Sivana]

Lots of top 40 songs about phones back in the 1970’s.

Don't forget "Telephone Man" (crude novelty record), "Ricky Don't Lose That Number", and especially the great Jim Croce's "Operator".

Going back, let's not forget "PEnnsylvania6-5000", "Don't Hang Up" and Chuck Berry's "Memphis".

“If the phone don’t ring you know its me” ~ The Bluesbusters

[Hot Tabasco]

I don't know why but the mention of Kagan, Tommy Tutone and the thought of Obama made me think of The Rodeo Song

[dfwgator]

ELO’s ‘Telephone Line”

[rhoda_penmark]

That’s brilliant ! I’m gonna try it.

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

“Ricky Don’t Lose That Number” isn’t about a phone number but the illegal kind one smokes.

Here in Indianapolis that number is a plumber.
They advertise like crazy:

Also “You Know My Name (Look Up the Number)” by The Beatles.

But that one didn’t have an actual phone number in it.

[nickcarraway]

I don’t think that’s true, if you listen to the whole song. The chorus even says, “You don’t want to call nobody else.”
