Jim is hosting John’s idea of music called Bubblegum Pop. I don’t know when the last song was written in this genre or even if there was a “last song”. All I know is that like last week, many of these tunes were a bit before my time. Join in here: https://jimadamsauthordotcom.wordpress.com/2023/02/18/chewy-delectable-luscious-yummy/
I love this song. I always listened to it being sung by Neil Diamond but I found this…Apparently, Andy Kim was the original singer.
Lyrics
Ain’t it good
Ain’t it right
That you are with me here tonight
The music playing
Our bodies swayin’ in time
In time, in time, in time
Touching you so warm and tender
Lord, I feel such a sweet surrender
Beautiful is the dream that makes you mine
Mmm
Rock me gently
Rock me slowly
Take it easy
Don’t you know
That I have never been loved like this before
Baby, baby
Rock me gently
Rock me slowly
Take it easy
Don’t you know
That I have never been loved like this before
Oh my darling
♪
Oh my baby
You got the moves that drive me crazy
And on your face I see a trace of love
Of love, of love, of love
Come hold me close
Don’t let me go
I need you, honey
I love you so
You were made for me by the stars above
Oh, rock me gently
Rock me slowly
Take it easy
Don’t you know
That I have never been loved like this before
And baby, baby
Rock me gently
Rock me slowly
Take it easy
Don’t you know
That I have never been loved like this before
♪
Rock me gently
Rock me slowly
Take it easy
Don’t you know
That I have never been loved like this before
Ain’t it good
Ain’t it right
That you are with me here tonight
Rock me gently
Rock me slowly
Take it easy
Don’t you know
That I have never been loved like this before
Baby, baby
Rock me gently
Rock me slowly
Take it easy
Don’t you know
That I have never been loved like this before

I always thought Andy Kim sounds a little like Neil Diamond. Good choice.

Thanks John. I remembered a lot of the songs from when I was a kid. I used to watch The Partridge Family! I also remember the episodes of The Brady Bunch where the kids were in the recording studio!

“Partridge Family” came on after “The Brady Bunch,” which I watched faithfully because of Maureen McCormick… anyway, I’m shocked that no one chose something from “The Partridge Family,” or “The Brady Bunch,” or something other than “Sugar, Sugar” by The Archies. And what of The Ohio Express?

Yes. I think I got the music for today’s theme wrong too!
Like you, a lot of it in this genre is before my time!
