Boy, that would've been one sweet Connection, wouldn't it? Wish I had thought of it. Alas, I thought of something else.

Correct identifications, though. Now who was famous for singing "Clancy"?

(BTW, I apologize for the Erudite; I just realized that I violated my own rule of not including any words from the quote source in the quote itself. Oops.)

Connection: "Clancy" was the signature song of tenor Dennis Day. Day was a regular on the Jack Benny program. Day's mother on the program was portrayed by actress Verna Felton, who was also the voice of the Fairy Godmother in "Cinderella".
