I lived in Holland at the time, and this was broadcast from a ship. Radio Noordzee International i think it was called. What lovely happy uncomplicated days. Unlike now sadly.
Maggie is beyond adorable. Her interplay with Mouth is simply the cutest performance I've ever seen in any video. Combine that with the heartfelt lyrics and the emotion they so beautifully imbue the song with and you have a classic that is sadly underplayed and under-appreciated today.
Their video conveys a certain carefree innocence that makes me miss my childhood. This was my favorite song when I was five and upon discovering the video it has become my favorite song again.
Thank you so much for this upload! One of the best feel-good songs ever. The words weren't much but you just couldn't help stomping along to that beat and that's why it reached No. 1.
find and find this song and finally found. It sounded in my head since chilhood and did not know who he was. Technologhy was very precarious in argentina in 1972 and had only one radio at home.Iam very happy ¡viva internet!
Holy Christ, I love this song, but I must admit the seventies were for the most part quite the eyesore! And yes, I was there and PART OF the eyesore! Good times!
It was great ! People in the early seventies chewed it up. Times have been a-changing of course. There is also great music today. There will always be great music. The music one grows up with is one of a kind. So what ? Every people is part of time and music but music is timeless.
This is one of the greatest songs ever recorded,what showman,what pop genius. I listened to this 45 until my ears bled, until I puked record needles. I've listened to this song every day since I've been 16 years old. It's the song of a whole generation. Now excuse me while I pinch a loaf.
Tho the lyrics don't quite make sense [unless you consider the fact Mouth may have been smokin' some wacky tabacky] How can you NOT sing along and feel good when listening to this song? I heard it on XM Radio [70s on 7] and instantly smiled!
Estimated friend, if you want to listen again this song and an endless number of successes of the love I suggest you to visit Radio MUSICA PARA MIMOS - looks for his direction URL in Google ( search Musica para Mimos in Google)-. best romantic music of all the times in Internet, is great, is very good ...!!!
I remenber - almost 40 years, seems to me like yesterday. This clip is from the german TV-Show "Disco". A good song has no time, I am sure it would do it nowadays again. Willem you are not forgotten.
I love 70's music, was 9 when this song was on the radio....I remember. It was pathetic then, and is even more so now! This is the essence of what we called "bubblegum".
dont know why I remember this song, I do like it, although I dont like hippies! and that performance! I mean, you can see that they were having fun with the song, but OMG!!!!
1972? Geez, I was in kindergarten. When I first heard this song, I remember nobody picked me up from school, I was scared! So, this was playing on somebody's radio, and I went to the neighbor's house, who was my classmate. Later, my mom got me.
What guy couldn't love maggie? With that sexy voice and that look of all the chics back in the 70,s, And oh so cool mouth(tommy chong)> What an excellant song and great duo. Talk about an original song!!!! Great!!!!
@IvD89 Yes, I know, it was 1971. In diese Zeit war ich in Enschede, habe die Holländer vergöttert und habe die Deutschen gehasst. Jetzt lebe ich in Deutschland, in Holland war ich seitdem nicht :(
I hope you understood this, sorry, my english is very-very bad.
Marshall8530 I am absolutely agree whit you. my parents also don't understand why i listen to this music but i have tolled them the same as you and now they listen it also again:P
I've always enjoyed this fun song. Although a Gold Record, it actually did not hit the number one position on the official Billboard chart, but did go as high as the number 7 song in the US in early summer 1972.
It's obvious to hear from 1:28 when she starts singing, and the quality of the voices in general that this is a fucking playback. I don't even see a fucking mic on their cheek to the mouth? Sure, it's an awesome song, but they're defo not singing.
Sadly, the original Mouth & MacNeal can never take the stage again, as Willem "Mouth" Duyn passed away December 4, 2004. although Maggie MacNeal reformed with another person taking over as Mouth, the original will never see a stage again.
She seems a bit annoyed with his silly hijinks. Just let her sing. I wonder if they knew at this time that this would become such a big international hit. She is really cute in this version.
@setenteromusic i don t agree with you..o.k there is a lot of junk on the radio and t.v but in between there are good new songs written for those who listen and like good quallity music.
For example,Caro Emerald and Adele are good examples of very good singers with good written songs or am i wrong?
I`ve had this chorus in my head since I could remember hearing it when I was 4 or 5. Had no Idea who sung it or how to find out until I got on you tube. Thanks You Tube. By the way I`m 41. Going to look upTed Mulray Gang now.
