I was disappointed to find out they were one of those singing groups instead. I'm thinking the whole time "zoom in on the band!"

One day last winter one of my grandsons (age 6) said the word "rubberband" and it sparked the memory of this song, so we looked it up on youtube (because I could not sing it with justice!). They loved it! And now they know their maw comes from an era when baby blue suits were cool!

Always pay attention when their songs come on the radio. I think Working My Way Back To You Girl is my favorite song of theirs. And my then red haired Natural, circa 1978, was about that long. So that dates me. Now I'm gray, and balding, and what is left is about 1/2 inch long.

Thanks for posting. Is it some sort of Anniversary for them?
