Thread Name: 1950s novelty songs
Subject: RE: 1950s novelty songs
"May The Bird of Paradise Fly Up Your Nose" ( Conway Twitty ) was ----well, weird, I guess, like the name of the singer !! Del Shannon's offering "Swiss Maid" ( written by Roger Miller ) was quite a novelty song too. Of course, these may have been just after the 'fifties, but they sure kept the genre alive !!
