There’s nothing funner than singing “Tie a Yellow Ribbon” by Tony Orlando and the Dawn. Momma and I didn’t go to a lot of concerts, but there are some musical groups that I remember seeing with her, and Tony Orlando was one of them. I’d never heard a lot of the songs, but Momma seemed to have. She sang along and clapped.
Soon I was clapping too to songs like this and “Knock Three Times.” As a kid, I didn’t know what they meant or referred to, but now as an adult, they’re just fun songs to have in my music library and to have to sing along to on long road trips.... or even the short ones...

The other day I set up on Pandora a Simon and Garfunkel channel. It was amazing that I knew so many of the words of songs I hadn't heard in years or even remembered until I heard them again recently. That would be the same of the Tony Orlando and Dawn songs of yours. Might not remember the name of the person I just met but give me a song from the late 60s and 70s and I know all the words. Interesting how memory and life work.
