Listen To This: "If I Knew You Were Comin' I'd've Baked a Cake" - Eileen Barton
Thursday, January 10, 2008 at 12:15AM I'm an occasional XM Kids listener. I know I'm not the only one, so I know I'm not the only one who knows that this song has been getting increasing play on the playlist. It's not kids music, and, heck, since it was recorded in about 1950, it's older not only than the kids listening, but probably everybody listening.
If this song doesn't put a smile on your face, then your candidate probably placed behind a write-in candidate in New Hampshire on Tuesday.
Eileen Barton - "If I Knew You Were Comin' I'd've Baked a Cake"
The video is actually still pictures, so I'd just play the thing and work on something else. Only the first 2:45 of the clip is the Eileen Barton song, but the rest is a couple of Weavers songs, including "Goodnight Irene," so you can get a little Pete Seeger in there, too.
