Definitely not a low-talker.

RIP

I also liked “Pretty, pretty” and “Keep on Singing.” A lot of her songs were tear-jerkers.

Not really a big fan of hers, but her voice was definitely part of background music of my younger days. May she rest in peace.

I wouldn’t have coffee with her because I hate feminists/leftists but I could sit and listen to her sing all day long. RIP Helen

Paul Williams did write wonderful songs! My favorite is “Rainy Days and Mondays”, as performed by The Carpenters. Brilliant!

And he was great as Little Enos.

I loved Smokey and the Bandit........1 and 2 and Paul and Pat McCormick were a big part of my enjoyment. Paul Williams has written some of my most favorite songs. Lotta talent there.

I watched a video on her some time ago. She had sold all her memorabilia and was living alone.

#17. Helen Reddy was born on 10/25/41 in Melbourne, Australia. “Acted in the movies “Airport 1975”, Pete’s Dragon” and “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band”.

Had 3 Number One songs: I am Woman, Delta Dawn and Angie Baby

“You and Me Against the World” hit #9 (all Billboard ratings)

“Leave Me Alone (Ruby Red Dress)” was No. 3

Saw her on an old “Salute to Carol Burnett” show about two weeks ago. Reddy was beautiful, sang beautifully, and was surprisingly very shorty.

A class act singer which is sadly missing in so many of them today.
