But she REALLY REALLY LIKES THAT SONG. Never mind that she can hear it on almost any station that plays oldies (including KFOG).

Maybe a new theme set suggestion -- every February 29th, Songs Everybody Really Really Likes, Are Admittedly Great, But Nobody Ever Really Needs to Hear Again.

Hey Jude
Stairway to Heaven
etc...

Eff Buddy Hackett -- my mom says she and my father once encountered him on a cruise ship in the hallway or something, and they tried to engage him, but he was dismissive.  yes. it's an unfair assessment based on one little encounter where a non-celeb expects the celeb to be "on," but I'm taking my moms' side.

I wonder if Donovan and Al Stewart ever shared the stage?  That would be one softly-spoken, affected, sibilant set!
