I am also one of those people who remember this tune from the Corona UHF Television station back in the early 1970's. (Channel 52 if I rememer correctly.)I loved it then and love it now. I was only able to enjoy it now because of the move "Mary and Max had it in the movie and I was able to view the credits at the end and find the name of this tune. What a wonderful memory.
I have loved the song ever since. Sandy Becker who died in 1996, had a skit on his show called Norton Nork, dressing as another character. He uses this song. Spent years looking for it and found it on-line in 2003 when the songs of his show were listed on IMDB.com. I do remember HOA on WABC radio in NY as well. Enjoyed your video. Worth more than a lot of junk I see on youtube. You get an award from me. THANKS! Like the live version on utube as well...
My all time favorite instrumental song. Actually written by Guy Warren in 1962 and performed by Bert Kaempfert who also did some arranging work for the Beatles. He died a long time ago. Bert also performed the Theme to the original Match Game Show in th 1960's, "A Swingn' Safari." I am also a native of the greater NY metro area. Sandy Becker had a variety show in the late fifites and early sixties. I was only three when the song came out.
Who the hell was the one person who disliked this?? BTW, also used as a theme on German language radio in Los Angeles during the 1950's and 1960's for Sunday afternoon "Drei Uhr Tee mit Lisa Lesco." Always puts me in a great mood!
This was also Sandy Becker's theme for his kids show on New York TV. Sandy Becker was Dr. Malone in the long-running radio series, "Young Doctor Malone." He passed away about a year ago.
While I was at West Point, I listened to Herb Oscar Anderson on 77WABC every week day morning. I looked forward to him singing "That Happy Feeling'. This song made my day, especially when I was a freshman. I wish that I could still hear him singing "That Happy Feeling". I know it would still make my day.
@silverhair42 HOA was singing the lyrics to The Sugar Bush Polka. "Sugar Bush, I love you so. I will never let you go. Dance the polka night and noon. Sugar Bush, I love you so."
The origin of this song is from an African folk song "Sugar Bush."
Excellent video! Great for road travel. That Happy Feeling was recorded in 1962, not a 50's recording. Never get tired of that song, thanks to one television station in Los Angeles, CA I watched as a kid growing up. Well done!
i like this song. it would be good for one of those "technical difficulties" waiting songs

The best was Herb Oscar Anderson (HOA) putting words to this and cranking it out on 77WABC.
