Close enough. It's actually "Silhouettes" by Herman's Hermits (starring Peter Noone). I was really into Herman's Hermits, and this was my favorite song. It wasn't until about 30 years later, though, when I heard a clear recording of the Rays' version, that I actually understood all the words. Until then, I hadn't known that the guy was actually at the wrong house! You're up, Pirate. George

If I'm right, there were TWO "Dynasty" connections, as well!

Did it by any chance have to do with an "unwed dad"? John F. was the star, and was involved with Charlie's Angels as well. George

Here's a hint: This was a big hit for a "British Invasion" group, although it was first recorded in the 50's.

I guess I don't read enough posts to find out why Catcup was motivated to start this thread. (And there really isn't much IN this thread for me to figure it out, either. Then again, it isn't my business!!) If it works for you and Geek, more power to you. My wife and I don't agree on everything, but we do agree on major doctrinal points. I honestly believe that I couldn't be happy married to a Trinitarian. But that's ME. George

Gray-ING hair, at 101? :D--> George

She meant, of course, Buddy Holly. But this isn't "Name that Tune." Is there actually a movie quote in the last few posts that I'm supposed to be figuring out? George

Try this one: Kisses I could almost taste, in the night. George

Don't get me wrong. I'm sure A.F. was a swell guy, and probably at one time a fine conductor. But even in the '70's he was hard to watch. I was at MIT in 1975, and our band was part of a large (22 bands, I think) bicentennial extravaganza on the Esplanade. AF "conducted" all the bands together in, yes, "The Stars and Stripes Forever." I believe the last band finished about 20 seconds after the first. --> George P.S. Sorry for the derail!

I used to sign letters with a halo (as did my father before me). Naturally, I got all sorts of crap from my TC and BC, because halos were, of course, heathen symbols. My response was that when LCM got rid of his Christmas tree, I'd get rid of the halo. The answer didn't sit well with them, but what could they do? :D--> George

There was my correct address and phone number amongst a myriad of other George St. Georges (I think there are seven of us in the US -- TWO in Texas!) I prefer http://www.intelius.com, because it tells you when the info was last updated, though they don't give away addresses or phone numbers for free. On the other hand, 24-hour searching costs $20, which is reasonable, AND you can do reverse searches (all occupants of a given address), which helps if someone has changed her name. George

That happened to me once. I don't expect it to happen to me again. How about you, Oak? George

Happy, happy birthday from all of us to you! Happy, happy birthday, may all your prayers come true! May you have happy birthdays, ALL YOUR WHOLE LIFE THROUGH! Happy, happy birthday, is our true wish for you!* George --> * And it IS God in Christ in you!

Yeah! How'd you like five acrossed your lips? George

Sounds like "House of the Rising Sun" (which, I've learned recently, can be sung to the tune of "Amazing Grace" or "Joy to the World") by the Animals. I'll wait for confirmation, though. George

I only needed three notes to recognize this one! It's the big one, Elizabeth! I'm coming to join you! George

FAR too recent for me. Cool song, though. :)--> George

Three of my stepchildren came to visit us yesterday (the other was working). I thoroughly exhausted myself playing with my grandson. Best Father's Day I've had!! George P.S. Kit: great post!

Maybe it WAS Arthur Fiedler. Did you ever SEE Arthur Fiedler conduct? It was impossible to follow him! I think the percussion of the Boston Pops did all the work while AF swatted at flies! :D--> George

You would think a song about Tarzan and Superman would be right up my alley, but I haven't the foggiest idea what this song is. George

Well, two days without a guess. I think we need another clue, Belle. George

"Spy Kids"? George

Maybe she meant "Roller Boogie." Linda Blair was really looking cute back then. Of course, Raquel Welch in "Kansas City Bombers" was fine, too! George

No.. Joey Levine's name is on the music. I just don't know if he was in Reunion. You're up, Belle. George

"Chaplin"? George
