Aw, damn. One of my very favorite singers has died. I was just playing an album of his last night. I'm pretty upset.

Ahhh, no. One of the best memories of my childhood was watching The Andy Williams Show, where he'd end each show singing "May Each Day". I remember the bear who wanted cookies too, and, of course, Andy is responsible for introducing me to the One True Love of My Life.

Coworker of mine interviewed him.

I remember watching his show when I was a kid, too. RIP, Andy.

The skits on his show were consistently funny. That was a rarity even back then.

I'm not very familiar with Andy Williams's work. But several years ago I was very taken with a song in a commercial, and looked it up via a scrap of the lyrics. It was "Music to Watch Girls By".

RIP Andy.

Me too, JanetLand, me too. I might break my lifelong rule of not playing Christmas songs before Halloween and go home and put one of his on.
