Two of these songs have been digested by Disney, lol.
"Running Bear" Johnny Preston (which is arguably either cultural appropriation or derogatory of native American -- fake native American chanting as the rhythm) became this scene in "Finding Nemo"

"Sh-Boom" is the core of this "Cars" sequence in Radiator Springs. I wonder how much of their royalty stream currently is Disney "Cars" plays on cable TV and streaming? 🤔

Moving on to Don Ho "Tiny Bubbles", which was widely disparaged I recall in my youth. But approaching with an open mind...now that I see that a lot of what people think about music is socially driven (ie disparagement of disco, which I actually enjoy, but people badmouthed again when I was younger...) #music #lps
ChuckChuckMcManis@chaos.socialAug 2, 2026, 1:19 AM@ai6yr One of the things I've experienced in my journey here is finding a "greatest hits of the xx's" which are all covers for those hits by some studio band. I toss those right out. 😃
Gifliangiflian@techhub.socialAug 2, 2026, 1:19 AM@ai6yr "electronically ___ to simulate stereo" has me wondering what word is missing. Also not sure I want stereo "simulated"

The first copy text was "electronically bifurcated" but the printers told the engineer to come up with another phrasing.

Aug 2, 2026, 1:58 AM@ai6yr IMHO not my all time favorite of Don Ho's anymore who we saw in Honolulu in 78. This was not part of the set that night but man best cover ever

@ai6yr I think Chantilly Lace and My Boyfriend's Back have something to them. No accounting for taste maybe!
Aug 2, 2026, 1:46 AM@ai6yr 👍 Yeah, I remember listening to most of those songs when they played them on the radio all the time. I grew to hate Running Bear real fast. You can trash that one.

@ai6yr oh, good. Another episode of "What artist(s) is Ben discovering today?"
Aug 2, 2026, 2:07 AM@ai6yr Walk Away Renee is one of the prettier songs of the 60's.
