Someday Dave should play "Mornin' Dew".  It's a wonderful version.

BOS2 to "Forever Came Today."  I think Dave and I are the only people who ever really LOVED this song (#26 charter, their worst to this point).

Hey y'all.

I posted some Similes over on the My 3 SOngs & Other Trivia forum, plus there are some hints on the What's My Line one that might lead to a couple more answers.  Give it a go.

Oh, I loved it too. Of course, I was 13 at the time  :D   Now, "No Matter What Sign You Are" -- THAT was a Supes record...

THAT was a BIZARRE record.

"A-QUAR-I-US ... SAG-I-TTAR-I-US!!!"  Smokey tries to rewrite Hair.  Not quite my idea of a Supremes record, but at least a valiant effort to spring them out of formula.

A tasteful close to the colorfall: "Wear Your Love Like Heaven."  BOS3.  I wish there were still a place for songs like this in Top 40 Land.

another BOS to Donovan, who'll be touring with Mellencamp soon! "Wear Your Love Like Heaven", which became a perfume commercial later that same year -- worth remembering when we bitch about instant sellouts today.

if Donovan wrote this today he'd get deported.   :(

Lord kiss me once more
Fill me with song
Allah kiss me once more
That I may, that I may
Wear my love like heaven

You've just ruined this song for me.  Or rather, Madison Avenue has.   :x
