UNLUCKY 13 or LUCKY 13???: "Fairytale" peaked at No. 13 and spent a total of 16 weeks on Billboard's Top 100 in 1974/75, it entered the charts on October 5th, 1974...

{Was it bad luck to have stopped at #13 or good luck that it spent 16 weeks on the charts???}

In 1982 The Pointer Sisters would experience Deja Vu; for their record "Should I Do It" would also peak at No. 13 and also spent 16 weeks in the Top 100.

Absolutely beautiful .. Most unexpected from this group, as special songs always are with groups! Soul Country - a genre with just this song!
