But last week, no fewer than three tunes from The Pajama Game, Broadway's brightest musical of the season, were tweaking jukebox and disk-jockey fancies: a slinky, satirical tango called Hernando's Hideaway was high on the bestseller record lists, a rowdy novelty called Steam Heat was also on the lists, and the show's big ballad, Hey There, suddenly showed signs of becoming...
