Default Re: Mitch Miller

So now I have running through my head.....

Let me hear a melody
I start to sing along
Loud and strong
I love to sing along
Get me near a melody
A simple singin’ song
And I sing along

La-dee-da-dee-da, doo-dee-doo-dee-doo
I hear a tune begins
La-dee-da-dee-da, dum-dee-dum-dee-dum
And before I know it I join in

Let me hear a melody
I start to sing along
Loud and strong
I love to sing along
Get me near a melody,
A simple singin’ song
And I sing along

Mitch said later on that the music or rock and roll didn't bother him - it was the sleazy business side - payola and such - that bothered him. I don't know if I buy that but no matter what he left a huge musical legacy and was so much more than what we generally remember him for. That said I LOVED Sing Along With Mitch.
