Well, it's the day after Labor Day, and I think that it's pretty safe to say that most kids are back in school and many colleges have already started or will soon start where children and young adults will be learning or continuing to learn their ABCs and 123s.

But anyway, in this thread, do you know any songs(along with videos) that have letters and/or numbers in their title? Well, here are a few of mine:

ABC - Jackson 5

Gloria Estefan - 1-2-3


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4IWlFutwXo

Duke Ellington, "Take the A Train"


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cb2w2m1JmCY

Chicago 25 Or 6 To 4


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUAYeN3Rp2E

Chicago - Questions 67 and 68

The Temptations - Cloud Nine

Don't most songs have letters in their titles?

Hmmm. So that's what the problem is.

Because I thought that this would be an easier and funner thread than the Similarly Themed Songs thread. But I guess I should have said: 'Individual letters.'

Also, I thought that the school analogy and the examples of the Jackson 5 song, the Duke Ellington song, the Nat King Cole song, and the Al Green song made what I was looking for clear.

But anyway, I repped both you and Sluggo for really great posts. Also, I'm thinking that I may have hogged most of the songs for this thread. Although, I have more.

Also, I don't think that the dumb looking Abc instead of ABC in the title helps. But Yac said that City Data's technicians are looking into correcting that software snafu.

Don't forget this infamous song from Tommy Tutone. 867-5309/Jenny. Anyone who had that phone number had to change it, due to the crank calls they were receiving. There was one in the North Phoenix area near where I lived when it came out, and the homeowner complained on one of the local news stations, "Quit callin' that number, it's been disconnected!"
