MUSIC URBAN LEGEND<\/span><\/u>: A non band member sang “Incense and Peppermints” because no one in the band wanted to.<\/p>\n

Occasionally, bands will have guest singers on their song, and every so often, a band will have a big hit with someone other than their normal lead singer being involved in the song.<\/p>\n
