Thread Name: Tom Lehrer- Your favorite song? What's he doing?
Subject: RE: Tom Lehrer
I came back to take a look at how BeardedBruce put in those songs (thanks again!). Can they be added to the DT? They're all in one post, without the LYR ADD designation, and I'm not sure how the Joe Clones go about updating with LYR ADD settings. I hope all of those little ditties will be added. It's nice to think that Mudcat will have Lehrer's complete oeuvre with additions like these. Maybe we'll creep up somewhere above #50,000 in popularity for searches in the future? (see that other thread)

The remark was made that Sesame Street has some pretty good songs, separate from the Electric Company songs. Sesame Street has some marvelous songs, and over the years I taped quite a few for my kids. I would see the program twice a day, in the morning I noted where the songs appeared in the program, and taped them in the afternoon. Joe Raposo was one prolific writer there. Michael Cooney performed quite a few, and other names will occur to me after I leave this thread. It is quite satisfying to know that small children are being exposed to such wit and charm at an early age.
