Oct 18th Birthday: Charles Edward Anderson aka Chuck Berry 87. - TopicsExpress



          

Oct 18th Birthday: Charles Edward Anderson aka Chuck Berry 87. Hard to believe but his only U.S. number one hit was not Johnny B. Goode, Maybelllen, or Roll Over Beethoven but instead the silly little novelty My Ding-A-Ling-A-Ling cover song in 1972. Even when it reached number 1, some stations refused to play the song because of the controversy re what playing with his ding-a-ling-a-ling meant. I dont remember this song but just a couple years later around 74 or 75 I remember the silly novelty song The Streak was played non stop. Last verse of My Ding-Ling-a-Ling-a-Ling goes something like: This here song, it aint to sad Cutest little song you ever had Those of you, who will not sing You must be playing with your own ding a ling Oh my ding a ling, my ding a ling (Come on now, Come on now, Everybody sing) Now my ding a, oh my ding a I wanna play with my ding a ling (one more time, slow down now...) - youtu.be/hMddte6yD2w
