Thrilled beyond belief to talk to one of my all-time heroes Bill Bailey ahead of his NZ tour this month. Career highlight, and what a lovely guy!

After 44 years it's still the song I got to to get an earworm out of my head
Joey Scarbury was a 26 year-old backup singer for Loretta Lynn — with no record label — when he was picked to sing the theme for “The Greatest American Hero (Believe It Or Not)”.

“I thought it was a really cool song. I had no idea it was going to become iconic.”

Peaks at #2 today in 1981.

Biggest pet peeve rn is toddler books that are written to appeal to adults. There are so many of them! My 3-year-old does not want to read a list of Susan B. Anthony's accomplishments, she wants to read about a witch who makes unpoppable balloons or a boy who sings so loud he blasts into outer space
