That was fun. My husband and our 19-year-old daughter, Drama Queen, turned up to kibbitz as I played the songs I didn’t recognize on YouTube. Some of us will have nightmares about long car trips in the 60s and 70s.
Yes, I just had to pick out a few on YouTube the other day (heheh, I have access to what all the songs are ahead of time!) to lessen my burden.
I think I actually knew all of them, just didn’t realize the name or the PROPER name (”Rhythm of the Rain”, not “Rhythm of the FALLING Rain”!), especially for instrumentals.
However, some of the #7s I really did not know.
Funny story about “Somethin’ Stupid”, which I know thanks to my musician cousin.
He went to the local music store looking for sheet music, including “Somethin’ Stupid”.
One clerk began helping him look and the manager came over asking what he was looking for....
...”Somethin’ Stupid”....
....which my cousin next overheard the manager chastise the clerk, “geez don’t say that here!”
