3. I do
You know, Ray Charles' version of 'America the Beautiful' was the only one I could ever listen to...

6. Also on Blue's Clues
Blue's "feature movie," Blues Big Musical Adventure, has Ray Charles as a talking G-Clef. It's really great! A little lesson for 4-5 year olds about how to read musical notation.

7. Ray Charles as a bus driver in "Spy Hard"
couldn't stop laughing at that scene.

Bet he was thrilled to be driving in a movie :P

9. No, but he was on the Nanny and that ep was rerun not too long ago...

I really loved Ray Charles. Back in the 60's one of my favorite songs was "I Can't Stop Loving You"--that wonderful ballad, remember, anyone??

I think he was on "Who's the Boss?", too, way back.
