This was not overheard strictly speaking, as I heard it on the radio. I am in Atlanta on business and stumbled on “Delilah.” I normally can’t listen more than 2 seconds, but this one caught my ear. A woman called in and told Delilah how thankful she was for her show. She wanted Delilah to play a song for her husband, who is of Native American descent. Apparently they make moccasins and stuff.
Her request to Delilah?
“Do you have any authentic Indian music? Maybe the theme from Pocahontas, Colors of the Wind?
It doesn’t get more authentic than that, right?

What, you mean Menken and Schwartz aren’t Iroquois names?

That is awesome. A Disney pop song of all things. The Native American’s one shot at talking with her hero and that’s the best she can do?

How high does the sycamore grow? if you cut it down, then you’ll never know!!! And you’ll never hear the wolf cry to the… OK, I’m getting carried away. Maybe it’s time for me to get another dose of Delilah.

It doesn’t get any more authentic than Colors of the Wind! I mean, that’s as Native American as Coke is American. Delilah is a treasure indeed.

NO! But isn’t that a testament to the demographics tuning into the Delilah show? Warning: listening to Delilah could put you at risk for diminished mental capacity.
LeMare–you’ve got to know which young divorced gal I think of every time I hear the Delilah show….
