Then he released a Sinatra-style swinger, the Brecht-Weill "Mack the Knife," which had enjoyed four Top 10 interpretations in the previous four years, including Louis Armstrong?s.

The source of these changes is difficult to pinpoint, with some saying they come from increased sex education and others citing a fear of the swinger's lifestyle in the wake of the AIDS epidemic. And insights, health experts say, have been harder to come by since Congress slashed funding for public sex surveys.
