I no longer want to do the sand dance with Reece... I want to learn how to do this instead. We're through as a double-act, Reece

This song was originally offered to Sam Cooke, who turned it down, and was passed on to Ricky Nelson; his rendition went to #1 on the US charts in 1961:
Incidentally, the backing singers on the recording are none other than The Jorinaires, the same backup vocal group used by Elvis... Before the Beatles came along, another British act made all the way to the #1 position on the US singles chart: The above single was released in 1962 and was rather indicative of the sort of music prevalent on the radio airwaves; the enormity of the sea change to come in the form of the Beatles and the "British Invasion" about a year later is stunning when you consider just how quickly popular music evolved in such short span of time... AS a BTW, there is a strip mall a few blocks from my home and one of the businesses is a good-sized drugstore where I have my prescriptions. One of the problems the store has had is panhandlers and transients hanging about outside the entrance. The store tried a well-known remedy of installing loudspeakers and playing classical music to shoo away the ne'er-do-wells and the ploy worked on most of them; however, there were still a few who seemed to little affected by the scheme. A few weeks back, I noticed there was music by on particular artist playing over the speakers as I went into the store (the music inside the store is more the standard pop/rock fare) and, when I exited, another song by the same artist was playing. Over the next couple of weeks, that particular artist's songs were always playing whenever I went to the pharmacy; I also noticed there was nary a panhandler or transient in sight. Who was this artist who put such dread into the hearts and souls of even the most stubborn layabouts?... ...Barry Manilow... I asked one of the security guards about the songs being played and he confirmed that, indeed, it was a deliberate attempt to rid the store of the layabouts; he also said some of the guys seemed to tough it out for a bit, but they always scattered when one particular Manilow song played: Mandy... I always suspected there was at least one valid reason/use for Manilow's work... <O>

I've known quite a few ladies who got quite excited about Barry Manilow and fancied him like crazy. Some of them were rather attractive as well. On long distance drives I used to not mind his songs when they came on the radio. Good background music. Anything that repels bums and deadbeats is ok by me.
