I have often wondered how many songs the average person can recognize and
remember lyrics to.  I love to play "Name That Tune" I have always been
fascinated how someone writes lyrics to fit a tune and sometimes it is such a
perfect match, even when written by two different people!  I also wonder how
many times a tune has to be heard before we are able to memorize the lyrics.
One more question: Whatever happened to all the groups of four guys who used
to sing most of the popular songs, like The Four Lads" ,"The Four Aces" the
"Four Freshmen"????  Even if one of them sang off key, it was still easy to
listen to!  I just remembered some who had four, but did not use the number in
the name of the group, like "The Hilltoppers" The Ames Brothers" and "The
Mills Brothers" Why FOUR?
Were they originally five or six, and they downsized?  What about the Ink
Spots?  We need to have an answer! LOL
