(Although the Monkees didn't do this song... wouldn't that have been hilarious!) Don't mind me, running on fumes as I just can't seem to sleep at night lately. I woulda slept in this morning, but my brother from New York stopped in to take me to lunch today. Perhaps I should raid cute man's stash of soda to kick start my brain. Now if only I had some Jack to add to it...<br /><br />Hope your week is good! I'll be around eventually. Just too tired to think straight at the moment.<br /><br />~MaryMary Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05875539859330322822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8221369581989798825.post-30043911433550216342018-03-19T18:57:39.812-04:002018-03-19T18:57:39.812-04:00Thanks, Wozza!Thanks, Wozza!Mary Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05875539859330322822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8221369581989798825.post-3805125022557764682018-03-19T18:05:35.717-04:002018-03-19T18:05:35.717-04:00Hi Mary,
I haven't heard that song in ages! I ...Hi Mary,<br />I haven't heard that song in ages! I would so like it if it didn't have that circus music at the beginning and the end. I don't know why but circus music always creeps me out. I guess it's clown association or something. But I like the body of the song so I just cringe until the circus music ends...<br />I never heard Leo Sayer's version. I haven't heard a Leo Sayer song in ages either! I've long been a Three Dog Night fan and it holds true here: my vote goes to those 3 Dogs...<br /><br />Have a good week. I'll be over sometime in the next few days to catch your 4M post...<br /><br />Michele at <a href="http://angelsbark.wordpress.com/" rel="nofollow">Angels Bark</a>Michele at Angels Bark https://www.blogger.com/profile/15891713963440451090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8221369581989798825.post-48755698470010740462018-03-19T13:09:02.304-04:002018-03-19T13:09:02.304-04:00Three Dog Night - loads better!

When my mom passed, my brothers and I joked about all of the inappropriate funeral songs we could use. We laughed at the thought of Adele's "Hello (from the other side)" playing. <br /><br />Thanks for stopping by!<br /><br />~MaryMary Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05875539859330322822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8221369581989798825.post-13827231663438028232018-03-17T13:29:44.333-04:002018-03-17T13:29:44.333-04:00Ha Ha!

In fact, my grumpy old Dad heard me and a friend do a duet of "When I Need You" and comically made us do it over and over...and over...and over... When Dad passed away and we were deciding on music, I said "we could always play 'When I Need You' in the background, Dad loved that one" and my mother burst into tears and said that Dad would sit straight up at the first few notes.<br /><br />So, now I don't feel bad at saying I never liked THIS Leo Sayer song. :-)<br /><br />But Three Dog Night's version - love it.
