Brenton gives us a lesson in love and fashion. Great melody and lyrics! I think the girl wasn't sure if he was really into her or if it was just her clothes. But any girl who gets a guy doing funny things like a clown is a keeper in my book, mercy mercy on me.
Sitting out in the middle of nowhere on a dirt road leaned up against the car with about a dozen friends, drinking beer with the radio blaring this song. Laughing, joking, not a care in the world. That was 45 years ago. Funny how music can take you back both in time and spirit.
my homie ray from monte took thr mic from brenton and sang it all drunk at the boogie in 2003 before we shut the place down for drunken shit lmao!!!!!!!
OMG I HAVENT LESSIN TO MY OLDIES SINCE EVER BUT FUK THIS SONG GETS TO ME... MY HOMIE ERNESTO USED TO LESSING TO THIS SONG ALL THE TIME ="(. I CANT BELIVE UR GONE AMIGO U WILL ALWAYS BE MISSED AND THATS FOR SHURE R.I.P NETO ( SNOOPY)
I have this on a compilation album. Here in the UK this song was almost anonymous - none of my friends remember ever hearing it! It has always been one of my favourites along with "Gimme A Little Sign" which did at least enjoy more success in the UK.
Wow! I used to stay with my aunt. My cousins were 10-12 years older than me. Every morning I would wake up. My aunt would be doing her house work, the radio would be on and this song would be playing. For the past several decades I have asked people if they remember this song and nobody did. A girl on my bus today had it as a ring tone!!! She told me how to connect. It's sooo cool! I'm not going crazy after all! Someone remembers there is actually a boogum boogum song!
This is true hotwax on a million dollar great looking afternoon.His real name is Alfred Smith from Colton,Calif,but in mid 1967 and hereafter he gave everybody that little sign that he had become the oogum boogum man .Rock on Brenton,Rock on!!
Chicago, I sure do remember. It was 1967, I was a senior in high school. The happiness I felt then is just briefly captured when I hear songs like this. While I am not proud of all the things I did in those days, I will never forget being young and how I felt the whole world lay before my feet. I haven't heard this in years. Thanks so much for posting it.
@Fedproman i think what are u talking about! well i dnt feel pride neither about what i did on my high school times but i feel proud that i got out of all that shit! i should feel pride about that too
@myklzaidel 'cause it's so happy! 8D AND CUUUUTE! And has a good rhythm with which to dance! Now GO ON NOW, WIT YO BAD SELF! And then there's the soaring vocals, which are just sweeeeet.
I hadn't thought of or heard this song in many many years. I just heard it on aol radio and had to find it here. Unfortunately, I don't see the box that I normally see here to add the song to my favorites.
This is a great song. Reminds me of my childhood, my teenage cousins who I was jealous of and couldn't wait to be 'big' like them! Thanks for posting. Forgotten all about this little gem until I stumbled upon it!
