I heard an interview with Frank Zappa (pictured above) a while back where he admitted that even he’s not immune to a hit. He said that he was driving through Hollywood one day on his way to Burbank to meet with his record company. It was a beautiful Southern California day he went on to say so he had the top down and was enjoying the sunshine. He was listening to the radio as he drove and tapping his fingers on the steering wheel to all the tunes coming out of it. At some point, he had to stop for a red light, and while waiting for it to change, another car pulled up beside him. As he sat there, he noticed that the couple in the other car were staring at him in horror. That’s when he realized that he’d been singing along rather loudly to “Sugar Sugar.”
