Tell me who gets a callout in this list before they call out a band he was a member of?
I confess I read thru the lyrics to figure it out, but it's right there: Donny Osmond, then a couple lines later the Osmond Bros.
I actually missed that, there's another one, less obvious. Obscure even.
OK, this time I had to consult AMG, so I suppose I should disqualify myself. So I'll e-mail you my answer.
(Btw, is there an artist in today's set who was also a member of this band?)
to avoid any further suspense - Urth wrote: "You were referring to Jeff Barry being a member of the Archies, yes? And Andy
Kim was also an Archie."
But actually I was referring to Leon Russell being a member of Ronnie Hawkins' band.
I think someone could write a whole Pop Culture dissertation on this song. I know it's been done with "American Pie".
