60s / 70s Song

[swissbirdy]

Hi all,

I am looking for a song that has the following line its corus:
... 'ouhoooo' Mister (maybe Mr.) Music...
I believe is should be a 60s or 70s song.

Furthermore, I am trying to find another song with the corus:
..'oho oho' Paradise it seems so nice...

I appreciate any insight that could bring my search to a successful end.

Thank you.

Chris

Try "Mr. Music Man" by Andy Kim for the first one

Both songs sound like something by Phoebe Snow or Joni Mitchel

Is it "Mr. Big Stuff" by "Jean Knight" for the first one.


Oh yeah, ooh)
Mr. Big Stuff
Who do you think you are
Mr. Big Stuff
You're never gonna get my love

Now because you wear all those fancy clothes (oh yeah)
And have a big fine car, oh yes you do now
Do you think I can afford to give you my love (oh yeah)
You think you're higher than every star above

Mr. Big Stuff
Who do you think you are
Mr. Big Stuff
You're never gonna get my love

Now I know all the girls I've seen you with
I know you broke their hearts one after another now, bit by bit
You made 'em cry, many poor girls cry
When they try to keep you happy, they just try to keep you satisfied

Mr. Big Stuff, tell me tell me
Who do you think you are
Mr. Big Stuff
You're never gonna get my love

I'd rather give my love to a poor guy that has a love that's true (oh yeah)
Than to be fooled around and get hurt by you
Cause when I give my love, I want love in return (oh yeah)
Now I know this is a lesson Mr. Big Stuff you haven't learned

Mr. Big Stuff, tell me
Who do you think you are
Mr. Big Stuff
You're never gonna get my love

Mr. Big Stuff
You're never gonna break my heart
Mr. Big Stuff
You're never gonna make me cry

Mr. Big Stuff, tell me
Just who do you think you are
Mr. Big Stuff
You're never gonna get my love
Mr. Big Stuff

Could the second one be "Paradise" by Natalie Cole?
