i know crap about movies .
music , i have strong feelings about .

this girl .... the best female vocalist in the history of the world ... sang (and wrote ?) the following opening line ===>

"well , you can high-hat me all the time ,
and you may never come my way .
mother earth is waiting for you ,
there's a debt you have to pay .
i don't care how rich you are .
i don't care what you were .
when it all comes down ,
you've got to go back to
mother earth ."

name that tune ... and artist .

bonus points ===> what piano solo song did she perform on dick clark's american bandstand show ?

the lines are from the song "Mother Earth" (from the album "Living With The Animals" ... circa 1968) .

the singer's name is Tracy Nelson .

the song performed on American Bandstand ==> "Down So Low" ..... (check out the hauntingly beautiful back-up vocals by the Earth-ettes) .

she still performs to this day .

another of her many wonderful songs is "Cry On" ... which i'm sure you can still access somewhere on the net .

enjoy .

Never heard of her or the song, but I'll check it out.

let me know what you think , grey .... i'm pretty sure you'll enjoy her voice .

also , good luck to rudy .... who's participating in the "bloggers league" over at fantasypros911.com .

rob reed (of fp911) wrote an opening article about the league .

i mentioned that i was rooting for rudy , and , also , how much i enjoyed the razzball site ..... (per your earlier directive).

Ha! Thanks, Big O.
