I'll be the first to admit that I've been out of touch for years, but am I the only one here who has never heard of Baccara?

"Yes Sir ..." was BIG over here and drove me NUTS whenever I had to hear (i.e. endure) it, not only because of the sloshy vocals and background sounds but because of the ABUSE of the word "boogie" (disregarding its non-musical connotations for a moment ;)) to this budding jazz and R&B fan. They could neither boogie nor woogie for the life of it but still disco-minded teen music consumers over here were firmly sold on the idea that THIS was what (musical) "boogie" was supposed to be. :wacko: BERK!

So, how much money has White Christmas generated for Irving Berlin and his heirs? Even if it's jujst a few cents per copy sold, thats times 50 million for Bing's recordingplus all the other versions - what, 50 to 100 million more? Intellectual property, better than owning real estate...
