Oh, Jimmy Webb. That makes more sense.
He also wrote "MacArthur Park," didn't he?
'Never Leave Me'
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Yes. Also "Up Up and Away."
I think you're supposed to use the words "the execrable" before mentioning "MacArthur Park".
That's 'cause you've never heard it played on theremin and accordion.

That's true. Just on Richard Harris' & Donna Summer's pipes.

Heh. I was just thinking that here they had the guy responsible for a good percentage of the most annoying earworms of all time trapped in a small booth, and nobody beat him to death with a shovel.
Still, I'd bet he'd be a lot more coherent of a conversationalist than Glen Campbell.
Yeah. Even his conversations are probably earworms.
Ha!

Not so! Clem Snide were at Sundance a few weeks ago. I was just talking to Pete's wife (and Pee Wee Fist bass player) Anna who told me that they met Glen Campbell and he was regaling them with stories. I don't know what the stories were, but I'm told they were very entertaining. Really.
