Ironically enough I just saw this, this morning:

Golden Oldies For Baby Boomers



1. Herman's Hermits: "Mrs. Brown You've Got A Lovely Walker".


2. The Bee Gees: "How Can You Mend A Broken Hip?".


3. Bobby Darin: "Splish, Splash I Was Havin' A Flash".


4. Ringo Starr: "I Get By With A Little Help From Depends".


5. Roberta Flack: "The First Time Ever I Forgot Your Face".


6. Johnny Nash: "I Can't See Clearly Now".


7. Paul Simon: "Fifty Ways To Lose Your Liver".


8. The Commodores: "Once, Twice, Three Times To The Bathroom".


9. Marvin Gaye: "I Heard It Through The Grape Nuts".


10. Leo Sayer: "You Make Me Feel Like Nappin' ".




I'm not old enough to relate but I'm old enough to get the references...

Cya,

Robert
