What girl would "They're Coming to Take Me Away" possibly bring to mind? Sybil? Hah, I never said they were all good memories! Although mostly they are. I was the one guy who bought the whole Napoleon XIV album. Other ballads on there included "Split Level Head," "The Place Where The Nuts Chase The Squirrels" and "Photogenic Schizophrenic You." Great mood music. This one girl Judy fit well with that album. I learned valuable life lessons and moved on. I'll have to check out that album. I haven't figured out how to work "They're Coming to Take Me Away" into my Halloween set list so maybe there's something else there. |

He actually wrote an easy-listening hit for Sammy Davis Jr. in 1964 called "The Shadow Of Your Arms." As for Halloween, do you know of a song from 1964 by Jumping Gene Simmons (no relation to the guy from KISS) called "Haunted House?" It was a pretty big hit in its day, but its not played much anymore. |
