Reality check:
Last night, I asked a counter girl in a Chik Filet with Brandi on her nametag what she thought of the old song "Brandi". The answer, of course, was "What song named Brandi, I never heard of it". I noticed more grey hair this morning.
Rick-
If you're single, get her a used CD of it, if she seems to have potential to be at least a friend. She might like it. I guess some counter girls at Chick-Fil-A are classier and smarter than most...I've seen some college students in the mix there. And I know one who works part-time at an upscale burger place.
Is this the one where the barmaid loves the sailor who brought her silver from Spain? I always liked that. Don't know who sang it. I'll try to find it for you.
I know I've heard it on the sound in restaurants, including some like Chick-Fil-A. (sp?)
In fact, I need to get that when I go for the song by La Oreja de Van Gogh. (See separate topic for that video, the one needing translation)
You know, it seems just yesterday when the songs we're posting here were very current, and some became classics. I keep a range of music, from about the 15th Century-on. The good ones are good ones, and I don't feel "dated" in liking them! (Even, "Greensleeves" and, "Music of the High Renaissance." The gentleman who said he likes J.S. Bach knows a good thing when he sees it! Although my son argues for Pachibel's, "Canon" as a superior choice...)
I'll go look for, "Brandi".
