  5. Ring My Tubular Bell

    Done back in 2012, it’s a VERY silly cover I made of Anita Ward’s “Ring My Bell” done over the famous piano riff from Mike Oldfield’s “Tubular Bells.”

  7. "Ring My Bell" is a 1979 disco song written by #FrederickKnight. The song was originally written for eleven-year-old #StacyLattisaw as a teenybopper song about children talking on the telephone. When Lattisaw signed with a different label, American singer and musician #AnitaWard was asked to sing it instead, and it became her #onlyMajorHit. "Ring My Bell" went to number one on the #Billboard Hot 100 chart, the #DiscoTop80 chart and the Soul Singles chart.

    Drinking cheap Pinot Grigio from Trader Joe's. It's really not bad!

    I think Ward's failure to have another hit was a consequence of the late seventies /early eighties antidisco movement. I'd like to read more about the origins and significance of that movement.
