Pocket Calculator by Kraftwerk
Lyrics:
I'm the operator with my pocket calculator
I'm the operator with my pocket calculator
I am adding
And subtracting
I'm controlling
And composing
I'm the operator with my pocket calculator
I'm the operator with my pocket calculator
I am adding
And subtracting
I'm controlling
And composing
By pressing down a special key
It plays a little melody
By pressing down a special key
It plays a little melody
I'm the operator with my pocket calculator
I'm the operator with my pocket calculator

Sheila Ferguson sang the lead, accompanied by Fayette Pinkney and Valerie Holiday. Billboard named the song #67 on their list of 100 Greatest Girl Group Songs of All Time.
‘When will I see you again?’ Lyrics:
When will I see you again?
When will we share precious moments?
Will I have to wait forever?
Will I have to suffer (suffer)
And cry the whole night through?
When will I see you again?
When will our hearts beat together?
Are we in love or just friends?
Is this my beginning
or is this the end? (is this the end?)
When will I see you again?
(When will I see you again?)
When will I see you again, love?
Are we in love or just friends?
Is this my beginning
or is this the end? (is this the end?)
When will I see you again?
(When will I see you again?)
Sweet, sweet love of mine
(When will I see you again?)
Come on, come on
(When will I see you again?)
Tell me again
(When will I see you again?)

I Love How You Love Me - The Paris Sisters (1961)
I Love How You Love Me - The Paris Sisters (1961)
Lyrics:
I love how your eyes close
Whenever you kiss me
And when I'm away from you
I love how you miss me
I love the way you always treat me tenderly
But darling, most of all
I love how you love me (I love how you love me)
I love how your heart beats
Whenever I hold you
I love how you think of me
Without being told to
I love the way your touch is always heavenly
But darling, most of all
I love how you love me (I love how you love me)
I love how your eyes close
Whenever you kiss me
And when I'm away from you
I love how you miss me
I love the way your touch is always heavenly
But darling, most of all
I love how you love me (I love how you love me)
I love how you hug me (I love how you hug me)
I love how you squeeze me, tease me, please me
Love how you love me
I love how you love me
I love how you love me
-----------------------------------------------
"I Love How You Love Me" is a song written by Barry Mann and Larry Kolber. It was a 1961 Top Five hit for the pop girl group The Paris Sisters, which inaugurated a string of elaborately produced classic hits by Phil Spector. Bobby Vinton had a Top Ten hit in 1968 with a cover version. The song has been recorded by many other artists over the years.
The Paris Sisters recorded "I Love How You Love Me" at Gold Star Studios in the autumn of 1961 with Phil Spector as their producer. The group vocalized repeatedly to a piano accompaniment until Spector was satisfied with the balance between the voices, after which a string arrangement which Spector worked on over several days with Hank Levine was added. The song featured a spoken recitation by lead singer Priscilla Paris, speaking the first half of the repeated first verse in an unsung manner over the instrumental break.
According to Lester Sill, with whom Spector was then staying, Spector would bring the tapes for "I Love How You Love Me" from Gold Star Studios every evening to review in his room: "he would wake me up at three or four in the morning, listening to [the song] over and over again at a very low level." Sill says Spector "must have remixed the strings on that song thirty times; then listened to it for another four or five days before he was sure it was right. Then finally when the record was pressed, he listened to the pressing for another two or three days before he gave it an approval."
Spector's interest in the song was occasioned by its structural similarity to "To Know Him Is to Love Him", the No. 1 hit that Spector's group, the Teddy Bears, had scored in 1958. Annette Kleinbard who had been the Teddy Bears' vocalist, would weep upon hearing The Paris Sisters' "I Love How You Love Me" on her car radio: "Before [Priscilla Paris] sung five words I knew it was Phil's record...it was just the most beautiful record, but I loved it and I hated it at the same time; it felt like Phil had taken my voice and passed it on to someone else". However, Priscilla Paris would opine: "My sound was not like Annette's - she had a very thin type of little girl voice. I have a heavy roque - that's a French word meaning very heavy, husky - voice. I think Phil fell into something he wanted to do, added extra ingredients, and ended up with something different."
"I Love How You Love Me" was originally intended for Tony Orlando, to be arranged in the same upbeat style as Orlando's precedent hits "Bless You" and "Halfway to Paradise".1 The song was written by Barry Mann and Larry Kolber (aka Kolberg) who were staff writers at Don Kirshner's Aldon Music near the Brill Building. Kolber had written the lyrics on a restaurant napkin within five minutes. When Phil Spector discovered the song on a visit to Kirshner's Aldon offices he persuaded Kirshner that the song would have more potential if rendered by a female act. Spector then recorded "I Love How You Love Me" with The Paris Sisters.
Entering the Top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100 in October 1961, "I Love How You Love Me" reached No. 5 that November.
Billboard named the song #100 on their list of 100 Greatest Girl Group Songs of All Time.
The song was used in episode 5 of the 2017 Twin Peaks continuation.
-----------------------------------------------
The American Bandstand video was not original to this particular song. If I recall correctly it was from another tune by The Paris Sisters. I used portions of that footage to create something new. I hope you like it! I have no copyrights to either the video or the music.

"Try To Remember"
Lyrics:
Try to remember the kind of September
When life was slow and oh, so mellow
Try to remember the kind of September
When grass was green and grain was yellow
Try to remember the kind of September
When you were a tender and callow fellow
Try to remember and if you remember then follow (follow)
Follow
Try to remember when life was so tender
That no one wept except the willow
Try to remember when life was so tender
That dreams were kept beside your pillow
Deep in December, it's nice to remember
The fire of September that made us mellow
Try to remember and if you remember then follow (follow)
Follow (follow)
Follow (follow)

Wildfire by Michael Martin Murphey | Live | Nashville Now 1990
Michael Martin Murphey performs his hit, "Wildfire" live on Nashville Now, 1990.
Lyrics:
She Comes Down From Yellow Mountain
On A Dark, Flat Land She Rides
On A Pony She Named Wildfire
With A Whirlwind By Her Side
On A Cold Nebraska Night
Oh, They Say She Died One Winter
When There Came A Killing Frost
And The Pony She Named Wildfire
Busted Down Its Stall
In A Blizzard He Was Lost
She Ran Calling Wildfire...
By The Dark Of The Moon I Planted
But There Came An Early Snow
There's Been A Hoot-Owl Howling By My Window Now
For Six Nights In A Row
She's Coming For Me, I Know
And On Wildfire We're Both Gonna Go
We'll Be Riding Wildfire...
On Wildfire We're Gonna Ride
Gonna Leave Sodbustin' Behind
Get These Hard Times Right On Out Of Our Minds
Riding Wildfire

Lolly Lyrics:
Hmm, hmm, hmm
Ready pop?
Yep
Ready son?
Uh-huh
Let's go!
Let's go!
One! two!
Lolly, Lolly, Lolly, get your adverbs here
Lolly, Lolly, Lolly, got some adverbs here
Come on down to Lolly's, get the adverbs here!
You're going to need
If you write or read
Or even think about it
Lolly Lolly Lolly, get your adverbs here
Got a lot of lolly, jolly adverbs here
Anything you need and we can make it absolutely clear
An adverb is a word
(That's all it is! and there's a lot of them)
That modifies a verb
(Sometimes a verb and sometimes)
It modifies an adjective, or else another adverb
And so you see that it's positively, very, very, necessary
Lolly, Lolly, Lolly, get your adverbs here
Father, son, and Lolly selling adverbs here
Got a lot of adverbs, and we make it clear
So come to Lolly! (Lolly, Lolly, Lolly)
Hello, folks, this is Lolly Senior
Saying we have every adverb in the book
So come on down and look
Hello folks, Lolly Junior here
Suppose your house needs painting
How are you going to paint it?
That's where the adverb comes in
We can also give you a special intensifier so you can paint it very neatly or rather sloppily
Hi!
Suppose you're going nut-gathering
Your buddy wants to know where and when
Use an adverb and tell him!
Get your adverbs!
Use it with an adjective, it says much more
Anything described can be described some more
Anything you'd ever need is in the store
And so you choose very carefully every word you use
Use it with a verb, it tells us how you did
Where it happened, where you're going, where you've been
Use it with another adverb, that's the end
And even more
How, where, or when
Condition or reason
These questions are answered
When you use an adverb
Come and get it!
Lolly, Lolly, Lolly, get your adverbs here
Quickly, quickly, quickly, get those adverbs here
Slowly, surely, really learn your adverbs here
You're going need 'em if you read 'em
If you write or talk or think about 'em
Lolly! (Lolly, Lolly, Lolly)
If it's an adverb, we have it at Lolly's!
Bring along your old adjectives, too, like slow, soft, and sure
We'll fit 'em out with our LY attachment and make perfectly good adverbs out of them!
Lots of good tricks at Lolly's so come on down
(Lolly, Lolly, Lolly!)
Adverbs deal with manner, place, time
(Lolly, Lolly, Lolly!)
Condition, reason
(Father, son, and Lolly)
Comparison, contrast
(Lolly, Lolly, Lolly)
Enrich your language with adverbs!
(Lolly, Lolly, Lolly)
Besides, they're absolutely free!
(Lolly, Lolly, Lolly)
At your service!
Indubitably!

Eagles | Peaceful Easy Feeling | Live 1973
The Eagles perform their hit song, "Peaceful Easy Feeling" live, 1973.
Lyrics:
I like the way your sparkling earrings lay
Against your skin so brown
And I want to sleep with you in the desert night
With a billion stars all around
'Cause I got a peaceful easy feelin'
And I know you won't let me down
'Cause I'm already standin'
On the ground
And I found out a long time ago
What a woman can do to your soul
Aw but she can't take you any way
You don't already know how to go
And I got a peaceful easy feelin'
And I know you won't let me down
'Cause I'm already standin'
On the ground
I get this feelin' I may know you
As a lover and a friend
This voice keeps whisperin' in my other ear
Tells me I may never see you again
'Cause I get a peaceful easy feelin'
And I know you won't let me down
'Cause I'm already standin'
I'm already standin'
Yes, I'm already standin'
On the ground
------------------------
"Peaceful Easy Feeling" is a song written by Jack Tempchin and recorded by the Eagles. It was the third single from the band's 1972 debut album Eagles.

Post Honey-Comb Cereal Commercial (1970s) with the Honeycomb Hideout Gang and Big Betty the Blonde Bomber roller derby.
During the 1970s and 1980s, television commercials featured visitors to a children's clubhouse called the Honeycomb Hideout in which the visitor arrives, initially hostile, and exclaims a need for a "big" cereal. Then, the kids introduce the visitor to the cereal, winning over the visitor, examining the size of the cereal bits with a tape measure and singing the jingle:
Honeycomb's big...yeah yeah yeah!
It's not small...no no no!
Honeycomb's got...a big big bite!
Big big (taste/crunch) in a big big bite!
During the 1980s, the cereal offered the Honeycomb Hideout Club for children, distributing badges, membership cards and clubhouse toy incentives on specially marked box tops.

MR BUNGLE GOES TO LUNCH | Lunchroom Manners (1959) | Don't Be A Mr. Bungle
Mr. Bungle Goes To Lunch - The original 1959 Coronet educational production: "Beginning Responsibility: Lunchroom Manners."
This film has a cult following since it appeared on a Pee Wee Herman HBO special.
Are these films sometimes cheesy, unintentionally funny, outdated, and a little slow-moving for our frantic attention spans of today? You bet! Despite this, I’m an unabashed fan of these old school social guidance films. I appreciate their earnestness in a time of tiresome irony. I appreciate the idea that there is a right and wrong way to do things, and that we all have a role in choosing the former and strengthening society.
In this film, 'Beginning Responsibility: Lunchroom Manners,' the rude, clumsy puppet, Mr. Bungle, Shows kids how to behave in the school cafeteria.
Social guidance films such as Mr. Bungle, had their heyday from about 1945-1960, and were born from filmmakers’ genuine concern for the happiness and well-being of the rising generation. It’s sobering when you think that a fifteen-year-old in 1945 had known nothing but the Great Depression and a World War since their birth. Adults were worried that the young people who had faced such hardship would end up like the Lost Generation that emerged after WWI – cynical, jaded, and amoral. Filmmakers wanted to provide young people with some helpful guidelines that could aid them in socializing, finding happiness, reaching their potential, and becoming involved citizens who were able to navigate an increasingly complex world. The films touted the benefits of responsible, clean-living both for the individual and for society as a whole. Having just won a war by pulling together as a nation, people were highly optimistic about the virtues of civic-mindedness and solidarity.
While the films can seem naive, preachy, and conformist (and the ones aimed at girls, sexist) to a modern viewer, they were not made by hand-wringing fuddy-duddies. Their producers were liberal in their day; it was conservative parents who thought moral instruction should be left to parents and that schools should stick to the three Rs. Instructional filmmakers, on the other hand, thought that “Hollywood-style” films would add needed reinforcement to the advice kids got at home. Each film was made with the guidance of an “educational collaborator:” professors, sociologists, and psychologists who provided input in the hopes of making the advice more “academic” than knee-jerk. The use of charts and graphs was popular.
Interestingly enough, the founder of the most prolific and famous social guidance film studio — Coronet Films — was David Smart, who also created Gentleman’s Quarterly (GQ) and Esquire. Smart was a big believer in the power of instructional films and took the money he made on his magazines and poured it into building the Coronet studio in a suburb outside of Chicago. With two sound stages, the million-dollar studio was the largest east of Hollywood.
Social guidance films might seem hilariously corny today, but their producers sincerely wanted to reach young people who were searching for how to be a good person and live a satisfying life. The films were the first ones to depict everyday life from the teenagers’ point of view, and believe it or not, the producers’ goal was to make them as realistic as possible; the films couldn’t change behavior, they believed, unless the viewer identified with the characters. Most films begin with a young person facing a dilemma or difficult situation, and over the course of about ten minutes, he learns something new, does some self-analysis on how he can change, and then turns things around for himself; the films were novel in that they showed the characters developing as opposed to being strictly one-dimensional.
By the 1960s, the earnest style of social guidance films no longer fit into the changing culture, and instructional film studios limped into the next decade by producing pieces on driving safety and drugs before shuttering altogether. Some instructional films are owned by modern education companies and live on in university archives, but hundreds were thrown away and are lost forever.

SPIRIT OF AMERICA (1963) | The Beach Boys
Spirit of America original song with video montage of The Beach Boys and Craig Breedlove.
Craig Breedlove and his jet powered car, Spirit of America, set a land speed record, at the time of 407 mph (by the end of 1965 he reached a speed of 600 mph). The Beach Boys helped to immortalize and celebrate the triumph with a song--Spirit of America in 1963.
It was originally released on their album, Little Deuce Coupe. In 1975, Capitol Records released a hits compilation LP titled, Spirit of America. This was the follow-up to the Endless Summer Lp of the year before. Although it features only a handful of genuine hits, Spirit of America proved to be another success for The Beach Boys, reaching No. 8 in the US during a chart stay of 43 weeks and going gold. What's your reaction to this song? I've always loved it. So much so that I put this video montage together. I hope you like it.
Lyrics: Spirit of America
The Bonneville Salt Flats had seen some strange things
But the strangest thing yet was a jet without wings
Once as a jet it played in the stars
But now on the ground it's the king of our cars
An airplane an auto now famous worldwide
The Spirit of America, the name on the side
The man who would drive her Craig Breedlove by name
A daring young man played a dangerous game
With a J-47, a jet for his power
Craig Breedlove had averaged four-o-seven per hour
Both man and machine had given fair warn
They'd set a new record on that warm August morn....

Be My Baby lyrics:
The night we met I knew I needed you so
And if I had the chance I'd never let you go
So won't you say you love me
I'll make you so proud of me
We'll make 'em turn their heads every place we go
So won't you, please
(Be my, be my baby) Be my little baby
(My one and only baby) Say you'll be my darlin'
(Be my, be my baby) Be my baby now
Wha-oh-oh-oh
I'll make you happy, baby, just wait and see
For every kiss you give me, I'll give you three
Oh, since the day I saw you
I have been waiting for you
You know I will adore you 'til eternity
So won't you, please
(Be my, be my baby) Be my little baby
(My one and only baby) Say you'll be my darlin'
(Be my, be my baby) Be my baby now
Wha-oh-oh-oh-oh
So come on and please
(Be my, be my baby) Be my little baby
(My one and only baby) Say you'll be my darlin'
(Be my, be my baby) Be my baby now
Wha-oh-oh-oh......

TV Guide | Memories Through the Years | 50's 60's 70's 80's....
Return with us now to those gentler days of yesteryear as presented in the pages of TV Guide through the years.
The prototype of what would become TV Guide magazine was developed by Lee Wagner. In 1948, he printed New York City area listings magazine The TeleVision Guide, which was first released on local newsstands on June 14 of that year. Silent film star Gloria Swanson, who then starred of the short-lived variety series The Gloria Swanson Hour, appeared on the cover of the first issue. Wagner later began publishing regional editions of The TeleVision Guide for New England and the Baltimore–Washington area. Five years later, he sold the editions to Walter Annenberg, who folded it into his publishing and broadcasting company Triangle Publications, but remained as a consultant for the magazine until 1963. The national TV Guide's first issue was released on April 3, 1953, accumulating a total circulation of 1,560,000 copies that were sold in the ten U.S. cities where it was distributed. The inaugural cover featured a photograph of Lucille Ball's newborn son Desi Arnaz, Jr., with a downscaled inset photo of Ball placed in the top corner under the issue's headline: "Lucy's $50,000,000 baby".
