1. I've always liked that, |
|
and I think part of the reason is that to me it sounds like he's slightly off pitch - but that's what gives it a plaintive sound like I've heard in no other song.

3. one of the most beautiful songs of the 60's |
|
Love the Spoonful, and always admired them for putting out singles that didn't sound anything like the previous one, yet always maintained their consistently high quality. Trivia: John's godmother was Vivian Vance ( Ethel Mertz from I Love Lucy)

4. That song a couple of years ago about the guy writing to his girl at college... |
|
I think it was called Delijah.
But Darlin' Be Home Soon was one of the first songs I learned how to play on my guitar.

6. Wow, thanks. I'd forgotten about that song. |
|
Just bought it on iTunes (under the group Flowerpower, but I think iTunes made a mistake -- that's the name of the album, not the group. It's the same version as the Spoonful's on youtube.)
