CHA MILCH REB / EVEN NORM /AMA JINNA

1. Song / Composer-lyricist / Cover artist(s)
2. It's another song about something edible.
3. The composer-lyricist recorded it in 1953, but that cut was not released until 1969.
4. The song has been covered more than once. The cover in the scramble is from the '80s.
5. Even if you like the cover--as indeed you might--nothing comes close to the original, IMHO.
6. The edible stuff in the song title is what we all scream for, don't we?

Well done, woozy, whether you've heard of them or not!

AND SODAPOP, COLD'SH THE WAY / HER HIP MELTI CASEROL / TATEREHTR ESRISN


1. Song but not it's original title (about food) / Cover Artist (apropriately named) / Other Cover Artist (nothing to do with food but a *much* better cover)
2. The actual composer is not among the scramble.
3. The actual name of the Song is COLD'SH THE WAY but it's sometimes referred to as AND SODAPOP or AND SODAPOP, COLD'SH THE WAY.
4. SODAPOP is the food.
5. MELTI CASEROL may or may not be an ingredient for SODAPOP (depends on how hip and her you want it...)

I've heard of Van Halen. I just never heard of "Ice Cream Man".

So, xlebres' answer is wrong (One too many E's and one too few D's).

6: TATEREHTR ESRISN's album isn't about food in the title; but it could be about eating. After all, what is an animal's stomach for otherwise?

Cassandra Wilson and "The Belly of the Beast" has the song "Hot Tamales". Very lively cover. Very fine album.
