Baby or Babe

50s, 60s, 70s, Nostalgia, Songs

A popular term of affection or connection is that of baby or babe and many lyricists have centered or incorporated these words in their songs.

Songs with BABY or BABE in the title underpin this week’s theme. Three  of the ‘60’s popular girl  groups the Supremes (1964), the Shirelles (1961)

and Ronettes (1964) are ‘Baby’ focused as is Frank Valli and the Four seasons. Australians Helen Reddy and the Adelaide group the Vibrants are also ‘Baby’

focused while Sonny and Cher use the term ‘Babe’.
