Good songs! The only problem is, now I'm going to have "There's a pawnshop, on a corner, in Pitts-burg, Penn-syl-vania" going through my head all day.dachshundonstilts wrote: ↑Mon May 29, 2017 11:04 pmI've always liked this tune by Guy Mitchell. Very catchy.

You trying to tell me you didn't hear that shriek? That was something trying to get out of its premature grave, and I don't want to be here when it does. - Phantom of the Paradise (1974)
Re: Favorite Old Songs
Well here's the song I've been looking all over for with only a very (bad) vague description. Boom Chick-a Boom by Daddy Dewdrop from 1971. I miss being a teenager listening to that radio station in NJ!

Believe it or not, this song originated on the "Groovie Goolies" cartoon series, which I remember watching when I was 3 or 4.Kitty wrote: ↑Sat Jun 10, 2017 9:41 pmWell here's the song I've been looking all over for with only a very (bad) vague description.

Re: Favorite Old Songs
The original is not quite as risque as the Daddy Dewdrop version. man, that was a trippy cartoon, wasn't it?

Re: Favorite Old Songs
Well this in falls into two categories: silent film photos and old music. But I ultimately decided on old music! This is a slideshow I posted on YouTube in 2011. It popped up as a memory on Facebook, and I thought you'd all enjoy it as well!
