Good morning and Happy Tuesday!

Nearly two months ago, I officially kicked off the Ocho-rific Song o the Day with a little Gerry Rafferty tune called Baker Street.  Just a few days before I'd seen the video on a friends Facebook profile. I've always loved that song and googled to see what the details were on it.

As I googled to get the background, it occurred to me that I know at least 20 other people who like to hear the background stories of songs and bands and whatnot ... that's when the Ocho-rific Song o the Day was born.
