  1. High School Lullaby was and still is a very catchy song! The three guys seem to be doing a kind of comic or gag routine, too. I can see how they might be able to charm a lot or people.Their spot at number one was very well earned.

    1. Hello, Brian. Yep, it's definitely a catchy tune of its time. The three of them weren't singers initially but just comedians; they all ended up getting to do this hit number.
