A doobie is a slang term for marijuana joint.
"Promises, Promises" was a very challenging song to sing, and she handled it nicely.
I know she likes to smoke doobies...she can't be too bad
He, Burt, and Hal David wrote the songs she recorded.
Do you know the way to San Jose?
I've been away so long
I may go wrong and lose my way
Do you know the way to San Jose
I'm going back to find some piece of mind San Jose -a
L. A. is a great big freeway
Put a hundred down a by a car
In a week - or maybe two - they'll make you a star
Weeks turn into years and quickly pass
And all the stars there never were a parkin' cars and pumpin' gas
I've got lots of friends in San Jose
Wo oh oh oh
Can't wait to get back to San Jose
Wo oh oh oh
Do You know the way to San Jose
She was once quoted as saying that when she first heard "San Jose", she thought it was the dumbest song she ever heard. It turned out to be one of her biggest hits. The collaborations with Burt Bacharach and Hal David are like nothing else in music. It was no wonder that everyone else tripped all over themselves to work with them after hearing Dionne's renditions of their songs. "Don't Make Me Over" is one of the most heartfelt, dramatic ballads ever recorded, and it didn't even require Phil Spector's "Wall of Sound" technique to get there...
She's pretty good. I have her greatest hits CD. My 2 favorite songs of hers are "Heartbreaker" (written by the Bee Gees) and "Love Power" with Jeffrey Osbourne
Yes. So is my boyfriend. Deja Vu? That one girl must have her mistaken for realtive Whitney Houston.
