Vem sjöng make your own kind of music?
Cass Elliot
Make Your Own Kind of Music (song)
"Make Your Own Kind of Music" är en poplåt skriven av Barry Mann och Cynthia Weil som först spelades in 1968 av den New York-baserade trion Will-O-Bees (Janet Blossom, Steven Porter och Robert Merchanthouse), som regelbundet framförde Mann/Weil-kompositioner. Efter att Cass Elliot fick en hit sommaren 1969 med Mann/Weils "It's Getting Better" spelade hon in "Make Your Own Kind of Music" som uppföljningssingel, och hennes album Bubblegum, Lemonade, and... Something for Mama släpptes på nytt som "Make Your Own Kind Of Music/It's Getting Better", där titelavsnittet hade lagts till i den ursprungliga låtlistan. Elliots singel "Make Your Own Kind of Music" nådde dock bara topp 40 på plats 36. Den liknande effekten på listorna för uppföljningssingeln, en annan Mann/Weil-komposition med titeln "New World Coming", som nådde plats 42, visade att Elliot hade svårt att upprätthålla en profil som aktuell hitmakare när 1960-talet övergick i 1970-talet. Cass Elliots låt är i tonart E-dur.

Make Your Own Kind of Music (song)
"Make Your Own Kind of Music" is a pop song written by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil, first recorded in 1968 by the New York City-based trio the Will-O-Bees (Janet Blossom, Steven Porter, and Robert Merchanthouse), who regularly performed Mann/Weil compositions. After Cass Elliot had a hit in the summer of 1969 with Mann/Weil's "It's Getting Better", she recorded "Make Your Own Kind of Music" as the follow-up single, and her album Bubblegum, Lemonade, and... Something for Mama was re-released as "Make Your Own Kind Of Music/It's Getting Better," the title cut having been added to the original track listing. However, Elliot's "Make Your Own Kind of Music" single only just reached the Top 40 at #36. The similar chart impact of the follow-up single, another Mann/Weil composition entitled "New World Coming," which reached #42, signaled Elliot's challenges in maintaining a profile as a current hitmaker, as the 1960s turned into the 1970s. The Cass Elliot track is in the key of E major.
