The song He Called Me Baby was written in 1961 by Harlan Howard as “She Called…” but was covered as “He Called Me Baby” by many women including Pasty Cline, Jessie Colter, Dinah Shore, Ella Washington, Nancy Wilson and Candi Staton – you may remember hearing Candi Staton’s version sampled in the 2009 song Kandi by One Eskimo. To me, having been called “baby’ by men who didn’t mean anything by it, and/or used it because all women are interchangeable so “baby” works for any and all of us, or because they were dating several women at a time and it’s easier than trying to remember the names of all their women or they wanted to avoid the drama when they called one of us by the wrong name, it works much better as “He Called Me Baby” and is as relevant now as it was back then because men are men and the male of the species hasn’t changed much in thousands of years let alone the past 50 – they might dress a bit differently and have different toys and weapons but they’re still men.
Found your post on Google, the headline caught my eye and it absolutely was a good read.
Long time reader, first time commenter — so, thought I’d drop a comment..
– and at the same time ask for a favor.
Your wordpress site is very simplistic – hope you don’t mind me asking what theme you’re using?
(and don’t mind if I steal it? :P)
I just launched my small businesses site –also built in wordpress
like yours– but the theme slows (!) the site down quite a bit.
In case you have a minute, you can find it by searching
for “royal cbd” on Google (would appreciate any feedback)
Keep up the good work– and take care of yourself during
the coronavirus scare!

Thanks! I’m sorry, I don’t remember which theme it is. I’ll look for it and get back to you if I can find it. All the artwork and everything else graphic we did. Stay safe!
