I can Doo Diddy Wah Diddy for you ...

 

   ---   For folks my age we of course like the original song from back in 1964 as done by Manfred Mann but this new version is not bad either. Manfred Mann does however use the Maracas, a nice feature.                                                                    Edit: There is a mystery here because " Doo Wah Ditty Ditty " and " Diddy Wa Diddy " are two different songs, very interesting.

The 1st version of " Diddy Wa Diddy " goes back to 1929 when it was released by Arthur " Blind " Blake plus later versions were done by Bo Diddley as well as Leon Redbone. The song " Doo Wah Ditty Ditty " was put out by Manfred Mann in 1964 and that may solve this musical mystery and yes they do use some Maracas  lol.

Another song from years ago that I really like is " The Werewolves Of London " as done by the late great Warren Zevon.

I am always ‘surprising’ most of my students as I mostly play 70s/80s rock and blues. Not a big fan of hip hop and rap.

walk in to the classroom, and say, "and his hair was perfect", while running your hand through your hair.

then just move straight into the daily instruction.

Earlier I saw a photo on-line of a 93 year old lady with a sign that read: " I need more Beer ". Now I would say that running out of Beer is serious  lol.

You might be getting older if your preferred biofuel is " Flower Power ".

Running for beer or running out of beer? I know the harrier groups tend to do that. I tend to just stroll or stretch for mine ( my kitchen is small).

You might be getting older if you no longer think that driving a red Ferrari will help you pick up chicks  lol.

well, you need the tom selleck mustache, also.

Tom Selleck, with mustache, plus the Ferrari -- that could work ... or Brad Pitt, without mustache, on a bicycle...... or a horse ..... (No vehicle?  Not a deal-breaker.)
