11 pages in and no one remembered...



I, I will be king
And you, you will be queen

 

Well that's just bizarre. A song I love but not heard for decades - yet it popped up on a compilation of 'forgotten' 70s hit as I was on the tram this morning. Now I've spotted it here. Thought there was only me that remembered it .

 

Can I have 'Snoopy vs The Red Baron' or has someone already called it?

 

There's one by Professor Longhair that I recall from when I was a kid. It was about going to New Orleans to see the voodoo queen but I can't remember what the song's name is.

 

'Go to the Mardi Gras' I believe mentions the Zulu Queen (and the Zulu King)
