This was an amazing time in music history. It's interesting that so many artists could record and rerecord the songs within such a short amount of time. Male groups, female groups, male single artists and female single artists all recording the same song. All selling records. That just doesn't happen often today unless the song is recorded in another genre like from rock, alternative and country.
I also find it interesting that Bobby Vee flubbed the lyrics at 0.43 - 5 seconds and they left it.
Nice tune by the Elegants,or did Bobby do this first.Kinda like the Elegants Version better,Not to take anything away from Bobby.The Elegants had more of a Doo Wap sound to it.
ahh i like it better with bobby vee he makes it sound good

I believe the Elegants were first. Both great version, although they probably have the edge.
SirBasildeBrush 2 years ago
@koolbossjock Yes the Elegants did this song first, and they also wrote the song based on the old nursery rhyme.

What about 'zigga zigga zum'?

Your Helen song or Grand's Barry Mann's zigga zigga song for my birthday?

I was thinking Helen, but I guess Barry qualifies as well.
