“Fancy” Songs

Here's a bunch of songs, most of which have nothing to do with each other, except that the word "Fancy" appears in the title of each. Sound familiar? Oh yeah...maybe because I do these sorts of posts all the time. And then I sign off by imploring you to...enjoy!  ~  JH



1)  Scott Bradlee’s Postmodern Jukebox ft. Ashley Stroud  ~  “Fancy”  (I much prefer this version to Iggy Azalea’s. But if you must, here’s the link to the original song.)




2)  Bread  ~  “Fancy Dancer”




3)  Jermaine Jackson & DEVO  ~  “Let Me Tickle Your Fancy”




4)  Reba McEntire  ~  “Fancy”




5)  Chromeo  ~  “Fancy Footwork”




6)  The-Dream  ~  “Fancy”




7)  The Weepies  ~  “Fancy Things”




8)  Ween  ~  “She Caught My Fancy”




9)  Steam Powered Giraffe  ~  “Fancy Shoes”




10)  Silver Convention  ~  “Fancy Party”




11)  Mayer Hawthorne  ~  “Fancy Clothes”




12)  Commodores  ~  “Fancy Dancer”




13)  Miss Li  ~  “The Boy In The Fancy Suit”  (It’s a shame the audio quality isn’t better on this song. From what I can hear, she does a bang-up job of singing it.) 




14)  Andrew Peterson  ~  “Fool With A Fancy Guitar”




15)  The Oak Ridge Boys  ~  “(I’m Settin’) Fancy Free”




16)  The Supremes  ~  “Fancy Passes”

23)  Saxon  ~  “A Little Bit Of What You Fancy”




24)  the 4onthefloor  ~  “Fancy”




25)  Bobbie Gentry  ~  “Fancy”  (The original version of the Reba song – #4 above – Gentry’s rendition is distinctive and popular enough in its own right to also merit inclusion here.)
