    Ray Stevens has a lot of great songs and videos. “Santa Claus is Watching You”, “Sittin up with the dead”, “the streak”, “it’s me again Margaret”, “Surfin USSR” and a more serious one that he wrote, composed & sung is “Everything is Beautiful” the children heard in the chorus were from Oak Hill Elementary in Tennessee and had Ray Stevens two daughters in it.

    Ray Stevens is a country & pop singer-songwriter & comedian known for his novelty hits such as "Gitarzan", "Ahab The Arab", "Along Came Jones", "The Streak" and others. But he also did a few serious songs such as "Misty" & "Everything Is Beautiful" which he won a Grammy for in 1970.
    Please check out Home Free's version of this song "Mississippi Squirrel Revival". They do a great animated version that is very funny. Ray Stevens commented that he really liked it.

    Yes, Ray Stevens is still around. Even shows up occassionally on reactions to his songs to respond in the comments.
    He is a great singer and is mostly known for his huge list of comedy music. Plenty of other comedy songs like this like "Guitarzan", "Harry the Hairy Ape", "Ahab the Arab" and one of my personal favorites...."The Streak".
    Though he also has some very good non humor songs as well like "Everything is Beautiful" being one of my personal favorites

    Lulu, I believe those pants-skirts are called Gaucho skirts. They were popular in the 1970's but I think they're still available today. Back in the 70's they came in different lengths. Probably still do as far as I know.

    Ray Stevens had a number of funny hits like this back in the 60's & 70's when I was in High School and College. The Streak, Ahab The Arab and Guitarzan were some that I remember but I think this may have been the biggest hit. By the way, a group I know you are familiar with, Home Free did a cover of this. It is hilarious as you might imagine, and worth checking out. I am a Home Fry and truly enjoy watching you react to them.

    Yeah, actually, Ray did a number of straight songs like Misty, Everything Is Beautiful and Mr. Businessman, which did pretty well in the charts, but it actually wasn't until he released his first comedy/novelty song, The Streak, that his career really skyrocketed and made him a household name at the time ... and I LIKE IT !!!
    Besides the straight songs mentioned above, some of his great comedy songs would include again, The Streak, Guitarzan (one of the funniest and my favorites), Along Came Jones (my 2nd most favorite song from him), Shriner's Convention, Santa Claus is Watching You and, of course, Ahab The Arab.
