If anyone could post the lyrics to Nigger hatin hat, I would appreciate
it. I think Howard is pretty cool. Some of the stuff he has on his
show is great. LONG LIVE HOWARD STERN !!!

this is about my 17th attempt to get this request onto the news group.
back in the days, elton john did a song called "why won't they let howard
stern be on tv."
does anyone know if the tune was original for the stern show, orif it was
taken from an existing elton john song?
much thanks,
---andy

It was a Stern show original. I saw an interview with Elton John in which
he stated that he writes the music for songs in a matter of minutes. As
for the lyrics, I don't know if John made them up on the spot or if they
were written beforehand. But I'm sure the music was improvised.

This story has been on the air MANY times...

When stern had his synidcated weekend show (lasted a VERRY
short time) he had elton john on, and the gang wrote a song
parody to "Dont let the sun go down on me", and they asked
elton to sing it. Instead, elton wrote a original tune to it,
and GAVE it to Howard. The song is played pretty often at
6:00 when the show opens.
