Really good interview, too, as you would expect from Terry Gross.<BR/><BR/>http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=9603438Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-57939068905512213702007-05-09T12:10:00.000-04:002007-05-09T12:10:00.000-04:00I don't know about NY, but down here in Dixie, Sed...I don't know about NY, but down here in Dixie, Sedaka's concerts are a staple of PBS Pledge Week drives. "Please call in now. Where else can you see a full hour of Neil Sedaka?" Indeed<BR/><BR/>One of their $100 premium rewards was a DVD featuring all of NS's appearances on the Sonny & cher, Captain & Tennile, Hudson Bros, and Osmonds TV shows. Fashion hell beckons<BR/><BR/>"Made especially for PBS," which I translated as "Who the hell else would want it?" I deduced an enterprising tax lawyer somewhere in the works<BR/><BR/>Actually I like Sedaka, but he's a bit, um, indiscriminate about his associates<BR/><BR/>--SpaceAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-610900674171495232007-05-09T12:01:00.000-04:002007-05-09T12:01:00.000-04:00Here's the link to the video:http://youtube.com/wa...Here's the link to the video:<BR/><BR/>http://youtube.com/watch?v=fNY3E3gNMtA<BR/><BR/>Right on about Irving Berlin, Steve. Very perceptive. I can't see Sedaka ever writing "The Porpoise Song," or "I'm a Believer."

I assume that headache, metonymic or literal, was related to the first two. Hope you're better<BR/><BR/>In any case, your trip to Hackensack reminded me of the Fountains of Wayne song. I found a charming fan-made video at YouTube illustrating the song in stick figures.<BR/><BR/>The link is at 2:17 am. I also posted a follow-up at 2:41 am, about what happens when one searches "Hackensack" at YouTube. Hope you're amused<BR/><BR/>--SpaceAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-28250371341788989542007-05-09T08:48:00.000-04:002007-05-09T08:48:00.000-04:00This would be his what, 3rd comeback now?I thought...This would be his what, 3rd comeback now?<BR/><BR/>I thought he was square back in the 70s during his first.Kid Charlemagnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12109953353900729258noreply@blogger.com
