I admit I saw this elsewhere but I thought it might be a good thing to put here because honestly I look and listen to songs people post. I am always entertained and it opens my mind to many different avenues of musical tastes I have not known before. I hope ones like this column.
Nobody is going to know or remember this, but it is
Polka Dots and Moonbeams.
A country dance was being held in a garden
I felt a bump and heard an “I beg your pardon.”
Suddenly I saw polka dots and moonbeams
all around a pug nose dream
The music started and was I the perplexed one.
I held my breath and said, “May I have the next.”
In my trembling arms polka dots and moonbeams
all around a pug nose dream.
There were questions in the minds of other dancers
as they floated over the floor.
There were questions and my heart knew all the answers,
And perhaps a few things more.
Now, in a garden filled with Lilacs and laughter
I know the meaning of the words “ever after.”
And I’ll always see polka dots and moonbeams
All around a pug nose dream.
Corny, I know, but I love it.
It was recorded by various singers and I believe Frank Sinatra was one of them.
The Gilligan’s Island theme song
The Ballad of Jed Clampett.
Flatt & Scruggs.
I think Major Tom is my second favorite.
symphony of destruction by megadeth...
watching the video is recommended... 😁
Sorry, but “next” should be next one.
A Boy Named Hugh--Gene Price
Features the leading candidates for president in 1976
Cat’s in the Cradle by Harry Chapin
can’t listen to that one, hits too close to home.

.
Seriously over 100 posts and no one remembers a song about Alice and her Restaurant?
But I am going to have to go with ‘Operation Mindcrime’
It is an album, but it all comes together as a story.
Fogelherg. Same Old Lang Syne
I drove almost the entire length of the Ontario shoreline of Lake Superior years ago. Looking out across the vastness of that open water from Montreal River Harbour on a gray October day was a daunting and humbling experience.
I thought of that one, too. Reminds me of settlemnents in early Northern Michigan or Canada.
Mr. Bojangles version by Jim Stafford.
“El Paso, by Marty Robbins (1959)
I like Excitable Boy too.
