You might mean Little ole man(uptight everythings alright)-Bill Cosby,

"a train ran over me ,a half hour before a herd of elephants stampeded over me"

Not Bill Cosby . Could be me getting confused about the words though, I only heard the spoken intro to colored man once & that would have been 30 odd years ago

heard all of these recently. I've played The Drifters & Johnny C not long ago

Has anyone mentioned Gia Mateo - If You Cant Say Anything Nice?

I still love it. It sounds dated, but brill, at the same time.

l know a version by l think a male band...but not sure if it's that.....but ain't heard that for ages either..

Not too sure I like the sound of that. Was it OK, or was it as bad as I fear?

Also not heard, and not likely too for different reason is

The Toys - I've Got My Heart Set On You....

..........not likely as it could result in a room full of coronaries, if played out nowadays.

Stormingly great record tho.
