You burned your finger that evening While my back was turned. I asked the waiter for iodine, But I dined all alone.
And then I think it goes back to "your red scarf..." Title: "Loving You Has Made Me Bananas" words and music by Guy Marks, 1968 |

21 Jan 97 - 04:05 AM (#1515) Subject: RE: Red scarf matches yr eyes From: Joe Offer I was an obnoxious child. I memorized the song after hearing it on the radio, and used to torment my brothers and sisters (and parents) by singing it. Didn't you do that when you were young? |

Thanks very much for your reply. Please see if you can help with my "lost song" mentioned in my posting "they kiss while whistlin'" and e-mail me at rodney@druid.com please if you know anything. I don't check this forum that often lately. |

02 Feb 07 - 07:42 PM (#1956117) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Loving You Has Made Me Bananas From: McGrath of Harlow Fantastic - a friend was asking me to find "Loving You Has Made Me Bananas" only the other day. She'd gone to a fancy dress party where there was supposed to be a theme of song titles, and she pucked this one for her costume, with a great heavy bunch of bananas incorporated. Trouble was, no one had ever heard of it. She felt a right banana, she said. Anyway, I promised to try to find it, but no luck. Of course I should have tried the Mudcat without wasting any time. Now can anyone tell me how to copy the relevant file from that link that nice nameless GUEST (Date: 09 Jul 06 - 11:30 AM) gave us? I mean so that I can stick it on a CD to play on an ordinary CD player, and give it to her. |

It went something like: "Tonight's broadcast comes to you from the _____ Room, high atop the Hotel Sheets, overlooking the uptown section of downtown Pottstown" Which of you asphalt Einsteins remembers the rest of the intro???? I love that song. I am bananas also. |

09 Mar 07 - 04:11 AM (#1991168) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Loving You Has Made Me Bananas From: Geoff the Duck Guest - the introduction is also discussed on mudcat in another thread (possibly with the same name, but on a different occasion) You can read the posting from John in Brisbane on the Other Bananas Thread .
