The lobster in this video was apparently a crustacean musician called 'Rod Stuart' which has led to the common misconception that Rod Stewart played on this track.
Listen to the original version of this song recorded eight years earlier by 14 year old singer from Coney Island, Brooklyn, named Barbie Gaye. It's very similar from the vocals, to the tempo and even has the same ska beat,.
Could someone make me a great favor, and tell me what are the songs or the name of the singers who appear in this song, i just know bob marley, please id like to know, and ive been wondering this since i saw this video. thanks
@dyad2r1 whoa whoa whoa she's jamaican??? i was wondering how bob marley came into this lol.... yeah jamaicans are meant to rise to greatness!!!! thts why we have guiness ^_^ lol
@PAULLONDEN The original, noted by rudeboy, was released in 1957. This version was released in 1963. He doesn't state that this version was released in 1957.
I hant read all the comments on here but did anyone else notice the subbliminal message in betwen 0:56-0:57 it spells "HAPPY BRITHDAY THRIS" does anyone know wat it spells out in 1:02 ???
LOL i read in Pattie Boyd's book that she and her sister loved this song and that George Harrison thought it was horrible. He couldn't believe they actually liked this lol!
I didn't know she was a black singer, her voice is different from the voice that black singers usually have (or had, back then).
The only thing I don't like about Oldies songs is that they are way too short and always finish before you had enough - like desserts and good moments in life...
From "Rock Explosion: The British Invasion In Photos 1962-1967." Quote: Rod "The Mod" Stewart was very much a part of the mid-1960's scene, though his name wasn't familiar to Statesiders until much later. HIS FIRST SIZEABLE CONTRIBUTION TO A HIT RECORD WAS PLAYING HARMONICA ON MILLIE SMALL'S "MY BOY LOLLIPOP" which climbed to number two in the U.S. in the summer of 1964. Thank you.
Got some Island records dated two years before MBL.Saw Millie at Leyton East London her concert was a disaster as her band did not show and a last minute replacement band of white OAPs struggled to play Ska !
Thank you for that info but I thought I heard alot of her extended family on her father's side was married and had children by whites. Her marrying someone white is not strange. Alot of Caribbean people are married to Germans, Irish, Scottish and Australians.
I'm spanish. I read that this song was singed for show the ska like a style of music in an expo in new york, Is'n it? I want to know the firsters ska songs and groups...and in spain this is too difficult.
sorry for my english...
pd: i listened the tokio ska paradise orchestra...Is this group older or less old that others groups...?
why is there bob marley in the vid when exodus was not to come out for another 13 jears? or is there just exodus wriiien whit no reference to the album?
