October’s music: Say what?!

So may great song suggestions! We may have to do “Say what? Part 2” to fit them all in. These are the five new songs for October:

• Witch Doctor — David Seville (1958)
• Tutti Frutti — Little Richard (1955)
• Ja-Da — Bob Carleton (1919), Ukulele Mike (2013)
• Rockin’ Robin — Bobby Day (1958), Michael Jackson (1972)
• Hooked on a Feeling — B.J. Thomas (1968), The Twinkle Brothers (1971), Blue Swede (1974)

(Hooked on a Feeling is actually by B.J. Thomas, but we’ll do the “Ooga-Chaka” version popularized by Blue Swede.)

We also have these songs in our repertoire:

• Whiskey In The Jar — Irish traditional, The Dubliners (1968), Irish Rovers, Thin Lizzy (1973), Metallica (1999)
• Ob-La-Di Ob-La-Da — The Beatles (1968)
• Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah (from Disney’s Song of the South) — Allie Wrubel & Ray Gilbert (1946)
• Da Doo Ron Ron — The Crystals (1963)
• The Lion Sleeps Tonight — The Tokens (1961)

A special thank you to Rick, Barbara, Linda, Angie, Keith and Kristy for the suggestions!
