The Catholic church uses popular music. At Christmas, the choir will sing “Mary Did You Know.”

Really? There is one line that is very contrary to Catholic doctrine: "the Child that you've delivered will soon deliver you."

Good song! “I’m just a squirrel tryin’ to get a nut,” or something like that. Lol.

I love The Girl from Ipanema! I added it to my digital collection during the Rio Olympics last summer. I’m so grateful for this thread...it’s helping me find lots more songs to add!

>> Sad how many FReepers don’t know what a one-hit wonder is.

LOL. Was thinking the same thing reading through the selected favorites — great tunes, but generally not authored by one-hit-wonders.

I had a couple of tunes in mind but the bands ultimately had multiple hits.

Not an easy task...

Is it wrong of me to say that I like the Fat Boys’ version of Wipe Out even better than the original? :)
