Title: Donovan Philips Leitch
Post by: daglob on February 25, 2018, 04:58:46 AM
You all know about Donovan's song "Sunshine Superman" (You do, don't you? It still get played a little.), where he says that "Superman and Green Lantern ain't got nothing on me", but listening to his song "Museum", he suggest to the person he is singing to that "Maybe you should go get a power ring, You'd make all your troubles go".

I mean, if The Beatles read Jimmy Olsen...

The girl is Sue Lyons, an actress he was in love with.

Maybe you know this one:

...and this one was used for a perfume commercial:

The song was featured in commercials for Menley & James' Love Cosmetics line in the late 1960s and early 1970s, including an Eau De Love fragrance commercial that featured Ali MacGraw.

Excuse me, I'm having flashbacks to the '60s...

Y'all really don't know who Donovan is?

No, sorry. I never even heard of him until you brought him up. On the other hand, that does give you the right to go on a "Darn kids today!" rant if you so choose. ;)
