Yes WordWolf, One of my very favorite songs. Hopes the memories are good ones. Your answer, of course, is spot on. Your go!

I agree with you about "Who's Nect" and äqualung". I'm more familiar with The Doors by their catalog than which song is on what album, but I know enough to know you just mentioned "L.A. WOMA

Thanks for your indulgence. I like the Animals, and I don't know how I confused them for the Stones.
I can't find a notation saying the Stones did a cover, so apparently I confused them.
No, this was a non-spoof song by a "serious" band, and you've definitely heard of the band.
No. I looked up the lyrics to that song, and the counting isn't there.
It would be VERY odd for a Spanish-speaking singer to have changed the count like that.
It's an English group, better known in the English-speaking world than Selena,
and, AFAIK, all the members are still alive.
