JdeBPWhen Jaimie Vernon of Bullseye Records (which re-issued #Klaatu's album 3:47 E.S.T. in 2001) turns up in the comments section of your cover of Calling Occupants Of Interplanetary Craft, and so too does Morley Shulman (who co-wrote a musical with Klaatu's Dee Long) saying that xe will play this to John Woloschuk next time that they meet, you would know that you've caught people's attention …
… were it not for the fact that you're #ToriHolub and have already caught people's attention.

"Solitaire" is a ballad composed by #NeilSedaka with lyrics by Phil Cody and originally recorded by Sedaka on his 1972 album #Solitaire. It uses the card game of solitaire as a metaphor for a man "who lost his love through his indifference"—"while life goes on around him everywhere he's playing solitaire". A version by #AndyWilliams reached number 4 in the #UKSinglesChart in 1973. In 1975, the song was a U.S. top-20 single for #theCarpenters.
