    I don't know any. I did try to google it but, didn't find anything but the original. This post was edited by easyjolene at April 25, 2019 7:28 PM MDT

    Thanks for answering, easyjolene.

    Yeah, by chance today, I heard the one song I know of, so I thought I'd ask this strange question.
    :)

    I'll not yet name the song here, though. Ha!
    :)

    A man of mystery. I'll keep exploring!

    A quasi-hint    - - my question is a bit unclear -- the song I know of does not mention Alfred Hitchcock, just "Psycho" - - but the song is definitely referring to the movie.

    -- but, as I post now, in the thread, there are two more songs that mention the movie! How fun!

    Nields – Alfred Hitchcock

    What's it all about, Alfred Hitchcock?
    I saw every one of your films
    12 times.

    My grandmother brought me to the movies
    When I was only 5 years old
    To see The Trouble with Harry
    It wasn't scary.
    In fact it was sort of pastoral/comic
    At least that's what I thought at the time

    So I thought nothing of renting Psycho
    When I was all grown up and living by myself

    I couldn't take a shower for a week then
    I had to take a sponge bath in the kitchen in broad daylight.

    Alfred Hitchcock, what are you doing to our minds?
    I get the feeling that you're unkind
    I read what you said
    You want to play with our heads

    But still I love to watch your movies
    Every one from Vertigo to The Birds

    That last one is really my favorite
    I love how Tippi Hedren
    Drives along the coast road.

    Alfred,
    Alfred  This post was edited by Flint Ironstag at April 26, 2019 7:01 PM MDT

    Wow! I had absolutely no idea of this group nor the song! Ha! How fun, Flint Ironstag! Thanks for adjusting the video link to start right at the beginning of the song within the longer video. And thanks for posting the lyrics - - I wouldn't have caught them without your help.
    :)
    I enjoyed this!

    Yup - - this was the only one I could think of. This was the one I mentioned in my question.

    Yes!! 
    I forgot about this one! And I've heard it a lot! The Billy Joel song was the only one I could think of when I posted my question.
