When I mentioned Bobbie Gentry in the previous post, it reminded me to mention a podcast I listened to of an address by Alice Randall on country music songwriting. She talks about "Fancy" which really is a remarkable song.
Ignore the robot dancing, but dig those sets. I actually don't mind Reba McEntire's version, although the 80s bombast (1990 still counts) has dated much more than the 1969 version ...

Holy God, the spray-on pants... or jumpsuit... or whatever the hell. I'm surprised that was allowed on TV.

The spray on pants or the confronting tale of a mother pimping out her daughter?

Sorry. I couldn't hear the lyrics over that "Little Lord Fauntleroy by way of Studio 54 on the way to the Ice Dancing finals" get up.
