Poet. Songwriter. Singer. If you lived in the 60's and 70's you knew this guy.

Even if you never saw this:

youtu.be

I know you have to hsve heard this:

youtu.be

I think at one point one of the best selling singles of the 70's

Songs like this make me want to go back in time and stay there.

I had a hippy girlfriend in 1966 who thought Rod McKuen walked on water. On my 21st birthday she baked me a cake. My roommate said," now you can have your cake and eat it, too."

Clubber,no, no, your examples are horrible indeed. I'm corny for some songs. "Brown Eyed Girl" is another.
