OK you guys, you take the gal or gals “Dawn,” :tremble: but Tony is all mine; got it? ;-) We’ll Knock Three Times while singing Candida, then we’re gonna Tie Yellow Ribbons….well you guys can use your imaginations about where those Yellow Ribbons will be (tied). Who-hoo! :-)

Candida is indeed a wonderful song, too. Lots of great tunes and memories from this group.

It’s funny you mention but I was always partial to Joyce, also. Taking nothing away from Telma, of course, who is a foxy woman, too. In any event, I’m with you pal – to be greeted by that Dawn on a morning would certainly mean a great day is ahead. Not to mention, the prior night must have been memorable, too!

An’ I can dig it! This group is just full of surprises. My personal favorite of their many hits, though, is in fact, “Candida.” We all know Telma had gone on to a long and very successful career in television, but I always wondered what happened to Mrs. Joyce Vincent Wilson (as I seem to recall her referring to herself)? Gotta say, I always had more of a thing for her than Telma. Either way, that’s a Dawn I wouldn’t mind waking up to!

Some Tony Orlando & Dawn Trivia: Dawn’s very own Telma Hopkins contributed to the classic song Theme from Shaft. She voices the line “Shut your mouth!”
