Post by Paige TurnerName the song and singer! :)
Speaking of which, I just stumbled upon this today and it got me
thinking. I think most people know that "I Will Always Love You" had a
chance to become a #1 song by three different artists, and there was
some kind of ridiculous crap about "He Stopped Loving Her Today" being
#1 two consecutive years, but I found a song today that was a "Top
Twenty" hit twice by the same singer, using two different versions and
it got me thinking that I don't know if it's ever been done before.
Has it ?
How often ?
P.S. - The second part of the question is even BETTER ! :) I'll give
it on my next post. :)
2) While listening to a VA LP, one of those with the laughter and MC
"added" to try to make it appear like a live concert, T. Tommy Cutrer
introduced this singer as "smoother than a pound of butter" . Who was
it and what was the song ?
As an aside, and I guess a hint, I was also listening to the
Dillards , and read somewhere that around the time of their "Roots And
Branches" LP, Elton John asked them if they'd open for him, (hopefully
not their flies) :) :) :) and their LP quickly became their biggest
seller EVER !!!! Although this probably pre-dated the Willie Nelson
"Outlaw" explosion, the MO is obviously identical, and the LP is just
as offensive !!!!!!! "Roots And Branches" is a travesty and a joke,
and without Doug Dillard, so were/are the Dillards !
3) Finally, one last one and I guess one more hint, since ol' M-M-Mel
Tillis is about to get his due or more correctly I guess we should say
his LONG overdue, :) according to the ol' stuttering boy, what is his
most requested song ?
