J'en ai jamais entendu dans le style de musique country malheureusement...


Unfortunately, I have never heard any in the country music style.

I just heard "Hanging On The Telephone" by Blondie on the radio. I have never heard that one on the radio before!

Yes, I had heard it before. Also the original from the 1950's. The group name escapes me but that was how I found Blondie's version.

I never knew Blondie's version was a cover (what a talented drummer Clem Burke is).

Sooooo. Looked it up and here is the version by The Nerves. The vid shows stills of various phones.

Nice German song from the late 20's: "Darling, what is your name, your adress and your phone number?". Sung by Leo Monosson. What a voice!

... and an excellent one, song by King Oliver, entirely set on the phone, here by Jelly Roll Morton's Red Hot Peppers: Dr Jazz.
