Title: Classic Rock Questions, Dave
Post by ClusterChuck on Jul 14^th, 2004, 8:26am

OK, Dave, you might be the one to answer a question I have about a song. I have been trying for YEARS to find the name of this song, and who did it.

It came out in the mid to late sixties. It was a bit of a protest song, or anti-establishment song. The only part I can remember in it is the part about "ticky tac houses ..." [smiley=jammin.gif] "There's a red one, and a green one, and a blue one, and a yellow one, and they're all made out of ticky tac, and they all look just the same ..."

Any one help me out here? (I know, most of you think I am BEYOND help ... Maybe I am?)

Chuck

I know I'm not Dave - but I think the song you're talking about is "Little Boxes" by Malvina Reynolds.

Man, you're old. :P

Much Love,

I would have guessed Pete Seeger. He's the only one I've heard do it.

Classic Folk music yes. Rock it ain't. ...I still sing it as I drive thru the suburbs...or page thru high school yearbooks....tow the party line.

Anti conformity...beatniks...hippies...bikers...fresh air

I find most Clusterheads develop unique personalities too....forged in a different fire....shaped by the blacksmith of pain. Makes for a great gathering. Have a great time at Painstock 2004!
