I love the way he hit the high notes ... love the chorus when he goes "Timin' ... a tick a tick a tick a tick ... timin' ... a tock a tock a tock a tock"
Still have the original of this in my 60s collection,what great days when he was around.I remember the people concerned with this song saying it would be a hit even before it got released,and they were right.The truth is ,is that the 60s era was a one off and will never be repeated however hard they try,apart from the fact that nobody these days seems capable of getting anywhere near.
LOL omg i was singing this the other day, and i was doing the 'tocka tocka tocka' bit where he goes really high and my boyfriend was like 'What the fuck are you doing?' I'm not a great singer :p
I am currently 11 years old, I love this music! I grew up from my fathers music, he was born in 1970, but he had got it from his father! Long live this music!
jimmy jones always remind me of another great singer,,,,,JACKIE WILSON,, i love them and there wonderful music,,,those where the days when men was men,, and woman was glad of them,,,,,, really nice songs,,,thank you for posting
you know i use to listen to this great song,,and a wonderful singer,,,when i was a teenager ,,am now 67 years old not so longago i went out and buy some cd,s and this great song was on it,,,i played this song good timing,,,and god knows why i started to cry,,,,maybe its misspent youth,,,who knows,,,,,wonderful singer,,great song,,
they say certain songs will bring back good memouries, my memoury is of the jukebox in the naffi of the juniour leaders outward bound course Towyn.this was the only record played the whole 3 weeks I was there, BRILLIANT!!
Whoever is impersonating me on here (and I believe it to be someone by the name of Garrick Alden from Laurel, MD), should be arrested for his various comments.... it is not me posting those things, apologies for any confusion, and it pisses me off having my name and youtube name associated in any way with his nasty comments.
One o many tunes that reminds me of living in Cyprus. My old man had this song on tape, playing it in the car everytime we went to a beach or some other place
I don't know which is more captivating -- the "ticka, ticka, ticka" or Jimmy Jones' beaming smile. Regardless, this song always puts me in a great mood. The mini-history lesson within the song -- very clever.
@beckydann124 Walking down to the Stampede grounds. Calgary July 1960. Sang this ALL the way there,after, all the way back. Made 85c hr. Midway rides,girls flirting,too shy to say Hi,but it was GOOD Timing!
Ya know, here in America we have free speech and all. But I am so tired of seeing arguments sprouting all over You Tube about anything and everything.People say some hurtful, ugly things. I almost wish YT would disable the comments feature, that way I can just see the vid I want and not see the hateful, hurtful comments that are at times posted. I click on this nice, lovely old tune of my youth. I want to see positive comments. Not comments of hatred due to differences of culture!
Wow it is sad to see such venom in Whites, when ever their misconceptions are challenge. ONE THING WHITES SHOULD NOT PRACTICE CONTINUED IGNORANCE OF, IS THINKING THEY GAVE BLACKS ANYTHING. AFTER 400 YEARS OF LABOR, ON AMERICAN SOIL. THIS GIVING BLACKS SOMETHING, SOUNDS LIKE someone who is Retarded, and incapacitated. The Black Olmecs was in America Prior to Christ. Blacks was in all 4 corners of the World. The Slave Trade, just bought more Blacks back to where their forefathers already were.
@Un1c0RnHeinz57 THE INTERNET WAS CREATED WITH AMERICAN ingenuity and Wealth off of 400 years of Black American Labor. AND the whole world is crippled and dependent on America in some way or another. SO YOUR IGNORANCE IS INVALID, JUST ASK HE EUROPEAN UNION. AND THE AFRICAN UNION, AND THE UN. AND THE ASIAN UNION. no go back and open a book. or read something!
I was 13 and I was exploited labour. £6 a week for seven days. This song was on a continuous tape along with Tell Laura I love her and others of that era, Johnny Ray, Frankie Laine, Doris Day Jimmy Young, and several others that were drowned out by the constant clatter in the kitchen where I supposedly spent the 'best years of my life'
Nice song and imaginitive but not an instant flasback to any sort of memerable nostalgia I'm afraid.
Good Timin' and Handyman are two classics of that early 60's era. Great sounds from a talented singer. Jimmy moved from New York to New Jersey and I had the privilage of being with him during part of his career.
Nobody can deny Jimmy Jones is a splendid artist no matter what race he is. He must have won the race to the stardom despite his ethnic background. And it is quite disgusting to see these comments of racism exchanged by You Tube viewers.
Listening to oldies, I always feel I was born in the wrong era: 1975. Few of my own generations are interested in the golden era of american music.
now i have always thought (for some strange reason) that jimmy jones was white! probably because he SOUNDS white, it's not until right now ,after seeing his pic here ,that i see he was coloured not that it makes much difference either way because this is a brilliant song sung by a very talented guy. great stuff dalkey, thanks.
@rotena25 you are a typical nigger, ignorant, intellectually inferior to whitey, no doubt you are a BIG-LIPPED nigger that has only just learned how to use a knife and fork. you people are the filth of the earth and should all be strangle at birth since you all beg and steal from birth to death. it's whitey that sends all the niggers food and water day after day, i say starve you all to death, starting with you. you have the morals of a skunk and the intelligence of a fucking catterpillar ,
@nuipret Wow, you're real brave behind the computer... real nice.. Real Educated too... Ignorant pissant! Now go look at yourself in the mirror and ask yourself, "Do I Like What I See"? A very small person with an even smaller mind! Have a good night, hope you can sleep with all that hate in your heart!
@nuipret You're not fooling anybody, trying to sound like a tough guy on the computer don't make it so. Your type is "always" a coward in real life. You know, I'll bet anything you sit on the toilet to piss... don't you! Now shut the f-ck up "tough guy" Hahahaha
@Topshelftom1 well hi jigaboo! a nigger with a big cock? that must be good crack you are taking boy! did you know that nigger cum is EXACTLY the same structure as gorilla cum? that explains why you jigs are so fucking ugly! and it also explains the bad body odour that you all have from the moment of conception.
now go back to your bedroom and peek out of the window and look at your ugly black gals, then dream about our sweet-smelling gorgeous white chicks...the ones that laugh at you lot!
@nuipret If I wanted any Lip from you Cracker I would just scarpe it off of my scrotum.Hey Honkey with two teeth,didnt yer mama ever tell you its not polite to type when your mouth is full?Go watch the Village People while I fuck your mama and little sister with my huge,fat,throbbing dick!Peace and Love Whitey!
@Topshelftom1 that's it nigger? that the best you can do? well thanks for proving that you wogs are so inferior in every way to us whiteys! now don't you just HATE being a nigger? of course you do! you envy us whiteys with all your black heart because you realise that we have all the things you can never have, such as culture and social graces. you COULD teach us how to rob and kill and rape and loot, but we don't want to know your nigger lifestyles! i bet you are a big lipped nigger? i knew it!
@nuipret I bet you live in a trailor park with a broken down soda machine and telphone booth where you rednecks have jammed the coin slots from needing crack money?Now go brush that tooth of yours!
@Topshelftom1 TRAILOR? you can't spell can you nigger? now hear this sambo. are you a big-lipped buck tooth nigger? or have you some white blood in you which takes away some ugliness? (not much though!). do you try to get rid of your horrific body odour or do you just accept it and continue to pollute our atmosphere? i just bet you wank all day long to pictures of white chicks? yeah, i knew you did jig! you can beat me at NOTHING nigger, except robbing and killing innocent people that is.
@Topshelftom1 that's it? this is your best shot? well i truly never expected anything other than a dumb nigger that had nothing to say! i'll now leave you to get on with your raping and maiming, i'll just settle into my retirement and spend more money a week than you'll get in a year!
you're no match in any way for me nigger so ttfn and with luck another nigger will shoot you down very soon!
@BlacknesUnforgivable hey boys, looks like we've got us a real live nigger here! you're so easy to trace jig! now me and my boys in the states will pay you a visit VERY soon,y'hear nig? let's see you jump ropes and hoops when we MAKE you do it! i'm gonna make you work on my granpappy's plantation in georgia. see you real soon jigaboo!
@BlacknesUnforgivable I am English and I resent your narrow minded comments what would you know about anything you can't even use the language correctly you must be uneducated and uncouth to say the least such a tool.Anyway how could you and your boys afford the fare,you would have to sell a lot of yourself to do that and seeing as you are a first class pillock it would take forever.wHICH WOULD BE GOOD FOR ALL US.sORRY NO RESPONSE WANTED FROM A FIRST CLASS PILLOOCK.None needed either.
Thank you so much, i've been looking for this song for many years, probably more than 30 years, i heard this song as a young boy and loved it, actually here in Australia it was used by a Jewelery shop as an Ad for their Watches, to tell you the truth i think the ad was the only part of the song i heard and i wasn't sure if it was a real song or not, i actually looked on here a while back looking for it but gave up, had another look tonight and found it, i just purchased it of iTunes, Thankyou.
I met Jimmy Jones when he made an appearence at our High School dance in New York back in January of 1960 and we learned that we had mutual friends. He had just release his first big hit " Handy Man" and a few months later he recorded "Good Timin." A year later, when I moved to south Jersey, Jimmy would visit me if he was entertaining in the Philly area where he also had family. Ron
I was a senior in college when this came out--just a young guy. Today I'm an old man. This song is 50 years old. I hadn't heard it in decades. Today, it played over the sound system at my local hardware story. I never knew the actual name of the song, so it took a bit of googling of the lyrics tonight to find it.. My college apartment mate, who has since passed away, used to imitate the singer by going into falsetto.
Ah, yes. Those were the days; and this is one song that endures. Sounds as great today as it did back then. Never met Jimmy, but his wife Marie was in my brother's high school class. Would love to hear some of her work; as she, too, is a very talented singer.
I have been listening to this song for almost 50 yrs and I love as much now as ever. And, more importantly, I understand and appreciate the incredible talent so many of the singers from this era. Anyone think in 50 yrs people will be saying what a great musician Ludacris was??
This one and Handy Man were big hits in Lancaster, PA, when I was in Jr. and Sr. High. JJ's great voice and delivery, the backing vocals and strings, and wonderful rhythms -- fun to dance to -- all contributed to a superior 45. No cheap production there.
..one of my all-time favorites...I remember how thrilled I was to find a 33 1/3 M-G-M LP titled: GOOD TIMIN' (unfortunately it was only in mono !) at Fred Rodin's Record Corral in Toronto.......
The very first 45rpm record I ever bought! (Cost 7s 8d) I can still see its bright yellow label spinning on the turntable. Not enough stars in the galaxy to rate this one, Marika!
es una canción que hace soñar . cuando vivia en caletones siempre la escuchaba la administración norteamericana .hacia llegar estos exitos maravillosos.
I'm almost 52 years old. I have a 45 of Handman was I was a little kid. Never in all that time did I know that Jimmy Jones was black! See I learned something on Youtube. Thanks.
I remember campaigning for a sheriff who had this as his campaign song. His last name was TYNAN. Good Ole memories of this song playing continously on an open reel.
how can people dislike this? Nine haters to great music -__-. Shame :/

Thank you so much, i've been looking for this song for many years, probably more than 30 years, i heard this song as a young boy and loved it, actually here in Australia it was used by a Jewelery shop as an Ad for their Watches, to tell you the truth i think the ad was the only part of the song i heard and i wasn't sure if it was a real song or not, i actually looked on here a while back looking for it but gave up, had another look tonight and found it, i just purchased it of iTunes, Thankyou.

I met Jimmy Jones when he made an appearence at our High School dance in New York back in January of 1960 and we learned that we had mutual friends. He had just release his first big hit " Handy Man" and a few months later he recorded "Good Timin." A year later, when I moved to south Jersey, Jimmy would visit me if he was entertaining in the Philly area where he also had family. Ron

@KiteSwift I didn't think of this until your comment, but the "falsetto" part kind of reminds me of those old "Kaffa-Kaffa!" radio commercials...

I was a senior in college when this came out--just a young guy. Today I'm an old man. This song is 50 years old. I hadn't heard it in decades. Today, it played over the sound system at my local hardware story. I never knew the actual name of the song, so it took a bit of googling of the lyrics tonight to find it.. My college apartment mate, who has since passed away, used to imitate the singer by going into falsetto.

Ah, yes. Those were the days; and this is one song that endures. Sounds as great today as it did back then. Never met Jimmy, but his wife Marie was in my brother's high school class. Would love to hear some of her work; as she, too, is a very talented singer.

I have been listening to this song for almost 50 yrs and I love as much now as ever. And, more importantly, I understand and appreciate the incredible talent so many of the singers from this era. Anyone think in 50 yrs people will be saying what a great musician Ludacris was??

A great number from 1960. They don't make them like this anymore. Jimmy Jones had one of the best falsetto voices.
JMBC4561 2 years ago 3
This one and Handy Man were big hits in Lancaster, PA, when I was in Jr. and Sr. High. JJ's great voice and delivery, the backing vocals and strings, and wonderful rhythms -- fun to dance to -- all contributed to a superior 45. No cheap production there.
