Notes_Norton Posted September 26, 2019 Author Share Posted September 26, 2019 (edited) Actually "Mellow Yellow" and "Electric Boogie (Electric Slide)" are songs about women's erotic toys. Oh Pretty Woman - Roy Orbison The song that still gets the retirement crowd dancing.

Notes_Norton Posted September 26, 2019 Author Share Posted September 26, 2019 (edited) From the Broadway production "Damn Yankees", originally sung by Gwen Verdon on stage. Perhaps the most famous recording: "Whatever Lola Wants (Lola Gets)" - Sarah Vaughan Edited September 26, 2019 by Notes_Norton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my all-time favourite song Notes! Nick Lowe had a few more solo 'hits' over here and also wrote a lot of successful songs for other 'pub rock' and new wave artists. He's probably best known in The UK however as a producer, and has credits on albums by acts as diverse as Elvis Costello and Johnny Cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Notes_Norton Posted September 28, 2019 Author Share Posted September 28, 2019 Unfortunately, Nick Lowe isn't well known in the USA. Quite a few brilliant UK artists get very little exposure here. One I like a lot is Georgie Fame. I think he had one or two releases in the US, but the recordings I've managed to find have all been very good. On with the game. Last entry was from the Rolling Stones, so I give you, "Rocks In My Bed" - Duke Ellington (couldn't get a video to embed) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
