John Prine:  Jesus, The Missing Years

A topic also brilliantly treated (as Bill is well aware) in Christopher Moore's Lamb: The Gospel According To Christ's Childhood Pal Biff.


But more to the point: Ben Folds Five, "Missing The War".

Coz, assuming you are referring to Mr. Charles, the title of the song is “What’d I Say” which, technically, doesn’t qualify!  However I have to thank you for tweaking my brain to remember the wonderful SNL skit where Ray got to watch his tune covered by “The Young Caucasians”.

That was indeed my reference, and I am properly mortified at my failure of memory.  I do, however, thank you for tweaking my brain in re: The Young Caucasians; one the funnier things from back when SNL was still, in fact, funny.
