Hee.

I just found out that Shel Silverstein wrote "Cover of the Rolling Stone." I just love this.

Cool! I didn't know that either.

I didn't know that either, and in exclaiming over it found out that [livejournal.com profile] oakdragon didn't know who Shel Silverstein was. Very odd, considering how much he loves novelty songs. So I got an mp3 of "Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout" to play him. And read up a bit on SS's other accomplishments. Apparently he also wrote "Sylvia's Mother" and "A Boy Named Sue", as well as composing music for several movies and writing a screenplay or two.

He won a Grammy for "A Boy Named Sue."
