New Featured Unknown/Underrated Song--"Questions 67 and 68" from Chicago

Here's another great song that's an easy one for this category.  Now, we hear it and say "How could this be underrated?"  Everyone knows it's a great song now, but people who worked radio stations in 1969 and 1971 didn't know that.  This was Chicago's debut single in August of 1969 and it went all the way up to.......#71.  Yep, that is not a misprint. 


 They released it in 1971 after scoring hits with "Make Me Smile", "25 or 6 to 4", "Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is?", "Beginnings" and "Colour My World", thinking now that Chicago was known as a top group, the song would definitely be played by radio stations. This time it got to #24.  Alas, you just can't convince some people.


Which makes it one of The Top Underrated Songs of the Rock Era*...

"Questions 67 and 68"

Chicago

Words and Music by Robert Lamm

Can this feeling that we have together

Ooh, suddenly exist between?

Did this meeting of our minds together

Ooh, happen just today, some way?

I'd like to know

Can you tell me? Please don't tell me

It really doesn't matter anyhow

It's just that the thought of us so happy

Appears in my mind as a beautifully mysterious thing

Was your image in my mind so deeply

Ooh, other faces fade away

Blocking memories of unhappy hours

Ooh, leavin' just a burnin' love

I'd like to know

Can you tell me? Please don't tell me

It really doesn't matter anyhow

It's just that the thought of us so happy

Appears in my mind as a beautifully mysterious thing

Yes, it does now, baby

Can this lovin' we have found within us

Ooh, suddenly exist between?

Did we somehow try to make it happen

Ooh, was it just a natural thing?

I'd like to know

Can you tell me? Please don't tell me

It really doesn't matter anyhow

It's just that the thought of us so happy

Appears in my mind as a beautifully mysterious thing

Yes, it does now, baby
