ReplyDeleteGreat Tuesday Tunes list!
Just as mine this week was Ringo-centric, yours is Nesmith-centric, isn't it? I bet he makes more today much off of "Different Drum" than he does from Liquid Paper. (With computers, does anyone use that anymore?)
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, I humbly acknowledge that you beat me on this one. (Bowing.)
LOVED your answers!!
ReplyDeleteHey, Hey we're the Monkee's..People say we monkey around..
Great list, very original!
ReplyDeleteI love the Olivia Newton John track. Xanadu! One of my favorite cheesy movies ever :)
ReplyDeleteNatsthename: I had never seen that Stone Poneys photo until I found it on Google Images. I find some really cool pics that way.
ReplyDeleteMelli: In answer to your question as to why I chose The Monkees for the word "theme", it's because the name of their theme song is "(Theme from) The Monkees".
Polly: Thank you. I noticed that we shared a couple of answers.
Pjazzy: "Too Many Fish In the Sea" is one of my favorite Marvelettes's tunes. It's a shame they are not in the RRHOF.
Simply Shannon: Lucky for you that I didn't pick Barney the Dinosaur for any of my answers, lol. If that theme song ever gets stuck in one's head, I hope they have a sharp/blunt instrument nearby.
The Gal Herself: That's an interesting question you posed about the use of Liquid Paper today. I don't know about others, but I still use it. I write out my radio show playlists in ink and I use Liquid Paper when I make a mistake.
Oh and by the way, I plan on getting to your T13 for this week before you get to mine. :-)
Bitter Betty: The Monkees' theme is one of my all-time faves.
Michael: Thank you.
The Mistress of the D: I finally saw "Xanadu" for the first time earlier this year. That movie is just covered in Velveeta.
I saw "Sea of Love" and had to look at this post. That has been my all time favorite song. I never saw a picture of Phil Phillips. Wonder what's he's doing now.
ReplyDeleteLinda: Thanks so much for commenting. After checking Wikipedia, I found that Phil Phillips is alive and well and living in Louisiana. He even has his own MySpace page. Here is the link:
