Interesting that you paired this with Ode to Billy Joe.
The two have a lot is common — year, region, allusive lyrics, brevity, and, ultimately, greatness.
The technology has really changed —
“My baby sent me a Fed Ex…”
“My baby sent me a fax…”
“My baby sent me an email…”
“My baby sent me an IM…”
“My baby sent me a text…”
“My baby tweeted me…”
I’ve been running a lot of songs from the same years — this was 1967. It’s fascinating, how much good music was crammed into just a few years.
