The songs I’ve picked as my favorites from 1962 probably won’t ring the bells that these songs I’m using for the rest of the month will, but that’s okay. It was a pretty good year for music! Thanks for all the nice comments...

Well, we’re almost finished with this foolishness of songs with “fool” in the title, celebrating April Fools Day. There are songs that I’m sure came to mind when I said I was doing this subject, and this is probably one of them....
