Still love 50's & 60's music!
- Location
- Mohawk Valley, NY
Brother Love's Travelling Salvation Show- Neil Diamond
"Pack up the babies, and grab the old ladies, and everyone goes"
Jailhouse Rock- Elvis Presley
"Number 47, said to number 3, you're the cutest jailbird, I ever did see."
Keep in mind, this was 1957. People must have thought, "What kind of jail is he singing about? Hopefully it's some kind of co-ed jail,"
Twisting the Night Away- Sam Cooke
" Here's a fella in blue jeans, dancing with an older queen."
Now I realize that the word queen usually refers to a female monarch. But I lived in New York City for 15 years. When we used the word queen, we weren't talking about a woman.
Do You Love Me- The Contours
"Do you love me, now that I can dance?"
Does he think that was her only complaint about him?
You're So Vain- Carly Simon
"You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you. Don't you? Don't you?
Well? Isn't it?
Dance To The Music- Sly and the Family Stone
Sly: "Listen to me. Cynthia and Jerry got a message they're sayin'"
Cynthia: "All the squares go home!"
Shake Rattle and Roll- Bill Haley and the Comets
"Yeah, get out from that kitchen, and rattle those pots and pans. And now roll my breakfast 'cause I'm a hungry man."
