RE: Makeover Monday - Songs You May Not Know Were Covers Pt. 1

Wow. Cool list! I didn't realize that the Mama's and Pappa's weren't the original artists of Dream a Little Dream. Ozzie Nelson turned out to be a huge star. Of Television and did pretty well genetically too. Ricky Nelson was his son and grew up on the 'Ozzie and Harriet' show. He was, of course, black and white until he started singing. How about that?

Thanks for a GREAT post. I love it!

@bigtom13 Thanks! I did my research a little better this time around! Also, I think the Nelsons had a pretty good musical heritage. Ricky Nelson's two twins put together a band in the early 90's just called Nelson that had a couple of hit songs, so music is definitely in their genes!

For a short time in the 80's, it was impossible to live without Nelson's love and affection. You just couldn't face another night on your own. ;)

It's only after the rain that the blue skies that we wait on will come through. haha! :)
