Now that my set-up is in play, here’s the reason I posted this.

Do you think any of these - oh I forgot my wife’s fav = Peggy Sue… back to thought…

Do you think Buddy Holly, anyone in his management, or at his record label ever considered the thought of the ‘commerciality’ of a song about a singularly named girl?

Did someone, somewhere say - What about the others? You’re limiting your market? Just curious.

Billie Jean - Michael Jackson
Darlin’ Clementine
Lump (It’s the girl’s name…) - Presidents of the …
Boy Named Sue - Johnny Cash
