All I remember is "and I cry like a baby, in the darkness of my room."

It is definitely not the "Cry Like a Baby" song by the Box Tops. I don't even know when it originally came out, probably late 60's or early 70's.

Can you hum a few bars?

Somebody shoot me for remembering this, but I believe it's called 'Cry Like a Baby' by (cringe) Bobby Sherman.

Judging by that attitude, should I be happy that I have never heard of Bobby Sherman?

I remember playing Bobby Sherman's record* that came on the back of the Raisin Bran box. You cut it out, put it on the turntable, and voila! Ahhh, the good old days.


*For those who have never seen a record, it was black, circular, and it spinned on a thing called a "turntable."

Speaking of artist/titles, there's been a song that's been played ad nauseum around here, but radio stations have quit telling you artists and titles anymore. It has the words: "Does anyone here/hate everyone here/ for doing just like I do." or something like that.

Who is the artist and title? Anyone?

Thanks for the info. I did some digging and Bobby Sherman (gulp!) is indeed the culprit.

Lisa -

It sounds like "Back 2 Good" by Matchbox 20.

Lisa: I think Falcon's right about "Back 2 Good", unless there is another song out there with those lyrics.

Thanks for the song title. The words "back to good" are in the song, so that makes sense.

Bobby Sherman is a security guard at a Hollywood studio these days, saw it on MTV.

Now I have a line, "two dollars in jukebox, my whole life savings, one nickel at a time." Artist?Country, Probably 1950s. NOT Eddie Rabbitt with a song starting the same way.
