@Rj_1954 turned me on to this song after I hadn't heard it in years... 🥰🥰🥰🥰

Jefferson Starship - Miracles
It's a great song! I've said for years that Marty Balin was an underappreciated vocalist. He had an incredible voice with a great range, but he was more often than not overshadowed by Grace Slick in Jefferson Airplane/Starship.
 
I'm in the mood to hear some goofy stuff and this fits the bill nicely 😁

Napoleon XIV - They’re Coming To Take Me Away, Ha-Haaa!

 
I remember hearing a lot of these back in the late 60s/early 70s. They're probably the forerunners to the popular mashupp songs and videos you see on Youtube today. More novelty than a song, they put in various popular hits of the day in an interview format. I always thought they were funny, but then again it doesn't take much to amuse me 😁

Dickie Goodman - Energy Crisis '74

OMG! That is way too funny!!!!
 
I know... this song is not our usual kind of tune here... I just loved this song when it came out.

And right now, I would really love it if someone gave it to me good. 🤭🤭🤣🤣🤣

Trixter - Give It To Me Good

Trixter - Give It To Me Good

I remember the band but that's about the extent of it, but I can't say I recall the song though I did probably hear it at some point when it came out.

Again... maybe not my usual song for here... but it has kind of been a theme song for me lately... 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Cyndi Lauper - Girls Just Want To Have Fun

Any music video that features Captain Lou Albano is okay by me 😁
 
Birthday wishes to the late David Soul, born this day, August 28, 1943. Yes, better known as an actor (Starsky and Hutch is a favorite of mine), he did have one huge hit, and yeah it's kind of sappy but I like it.

David Soul - Don't Give Up On Us

 
Also, birthday wishes to Shania Twain, born this day, August 28, 1965. I think she's a favorite of our esteemed hostess as well. I was surprised that Shania has only released six albums in the last 30 years, almost like she's trying to beat Boston's record. She's had a lot of hits, more pop-tinged country than I usually listen to, but her songs have some really good hooks and their quite catchy like this one. The video is pretty cool, too.

Shania Twain - That Don't Impress Me Much

Oh yeah!!! Shania!!!!

Shania Twain - Man! I Feel Like A Woman!
 
I Saw Her Again - 1966
Song by The Mamas & the Papas

I listened to this on Sirius Radio and I thought the text was "I sawed her again"
 
Yummy Yummy Yummy - 1968
Song by Ohio Express

I wonder why I like the name of this group...
