  1. Fun fact: this was written by Broadway songwriters, composer Charles Strouse and lyricist Lee Adams. One of the musicals with which they followed their beloved hit "Bye Bye Birdie" was the ill-fated "It's a Bird, It's a Plane, It's Superman."

With other collaborators, Strouse went on to compose the music for "Annie."
