Saturday 9: My Baby Just Cares for Me

Saturday 9: My Baby Just Cares for Me (2016)

Unfamiliar with this week's song? Hear it here.

1) Michael Buble sings that his lover doesn't care much about the theater or new clothes. Which have you done more recently -- attended a play or movie or added to your wardrobe?

A. I bought some clothes last weekend.

2) This song was first performed in 1930, 45 years before Buble was born. What pop song do you love that is far older than you are?

A. Well, 'tis the season, so I'll go with Bing's version of White Christmas.

3) The video for this song features a spinning vinyl record. Do you still have a turntable?

A. We do have a turntable! However, it is not old. It's one we bought about six years ago. It also plays CDs and cassettes.

4) Michael is currently appearing on The Voice. Are you watching this season?

A. Yes, we are watching The Voice.

5) Of all his albums, Michael Buble's Christmas CD is his top seller. Now that we're in the month of November it's time for you to weigh in: When do you think it's appropriate to start playing holiday songs?

A. I think it is appropriate to start playing them the day after Thanksgiving, but I know radio stations around here start playing at the first of the month.

6) He unwinds by fishing, and he's very good at it. Fishing is a sport that requires lots of gear. Is there anyone in your life that has a hobby or passion that makes them easy to shop for?

A. My husband hunts, so sometimes I can come up with something for that, but he generally has everything he needs now.

7) Michael is a good cook and enjoys whipping up spaghetti bolognese. What's on the menu at your home this weekend?

A. We are eating pork loin BBQ sandwiches this weekend.

8) In 2016, when Michael Buble released this song, the United States Postal Service posthumously honored child star Shirley Temple with a postage stamp. Decades after leaving Hollywood, she served as US Ambassador to Ghana. Could you find Ghana on a map or globe?

A. I honestly don't know. I know what continent it's on (Africa), but not sure exactly where.

9) Random question -- You neglected that soft drink and now it's gone flat. Do you drink it anyway or dump it down the drain?

A. I don't drink soft drinks, so moot question, but husband drinks them even if they are flat. I would not if I were still drinking such things.
