See now, this is how it all should be:

The Monkees, "Sometime in the Morning"
“The choir of children sing their song.  They've practiced all year long.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.”

R Dean Taylor, "There's a Ghost in My House". I've commented on this one before, but I just heard it again on CG (it was a UK hit). I still can't believe The Four Tops didn't record this, it so clearly seems to have been written (by Taylor, w/Holland-Dozier-Holland) with Levi Stubbs in mind:

Dude, thank you!!  I've heard *of* this for many years, but never heard it until now!

ETA: But a dozen other Motown artists would have done a better job with this than R. Dean Adenoid himself.

Even though I'm old enough that I watched the Monkees in high school, I was not familiar with this song.  For some reason it struck a particularly poignant emotion of how long ago that time was in my life.  On a whim, I clicked on another version  which seemed to resonate with that idea, where Rose Marie (that's her, right?) is daydreaming of her long gone youth also!

More stuff I didn't know:  The song was written by Carole King/Gerry Goffin!

A remarkably detailed (if sometimes literal-minded) illustration/exegesis of "American Pie":

I snoozed on the first one too, so Geoff, thanks for posting that.

Which one is Lichie Brackmore?
Let's get right to it.

Nice.  I stole that line when I emailed some friends with the link.

Thanks Geoff, I needed that.

This is apparently quite a few years old, but it's new to me, and I adored it.  Someone on ILM mnentioned it in the context of comparison to the Supremes' "My World Is Empty Without You":

The Coral, "Dreaming of You"
“The choir of children sing their song.  They've practiced all year long.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.”

I knew this existed but I never seem it. The uncut version for the video of David Bowie's China Girl.
