What I didn't know about the singers of these songs.

Actually, I’m not convinced she’s not a drag queen.

Rene Geyer is not black. And is, or was, hot. Hot hot hot. Hot.

Count me in among the surprised–somehow, I always imagined it as being sung by Irene Cara!

Incidentally, Greenbaum’s follow-up single to the Jesus-befriending “Spirit in the Sky” was a song about ham.

Minnie Ripperton, who sang the song “Loving You”, is the mother of actress Maya Rudolph. At the end of “Loving You” she sings “Maya, Maya, Maya” repeatedly.

That’s all I got for trivia…

This is not a woman, which actually explains the lyrics of the song.

The rapper from Linkin Park.

Not black.

I always thought the Supertramp lead voice was a woman. Nope, it’s Roger Hodgson:

I was surprised to find he was the 17-yr-old kid growling out The Letter. A rare example of a singer’s voice getting HIGHER as he aged.

My MIL, not the brightest candle in the Methodist menorah, was surprised a few years back to find that a friend from childhood was Jewish. Name: Mitzi Goldstein.

Madre de Dios! How does he still sing like that? I remember when that song was new more than 30 years ago! Incredible!
