My Son(a honey brown mongrel mix) was named for Lovey Howell.......... the sweetest most loving face I'd ever seen. Lovey .....I LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU EVERY DAY. Love ya always Mama.
Ginger aged horribly! I saw her on a Reunion show they had a couple years back. She looks horrible. The other cast members were talking about what a nasty diva attitude she had and hwo she was jealous of all the attention Mary Ann got. All those years later with such a weather beaten and worn out face she still had that nasty diva attitude except this time her outsides matched her insides LOL
There's a 4-CD compilation I picked up from the library called the Brill Building Sound with this song on it. If you don't know about the Brill Building and its contribution to music in the 60's, you should check it out. You might be amazed at the songs that came from the singer/song writers working in that building.
i love this song! my acappalla choir is singing this for our next concert and i have the 2nd concert! i am sooooo excited! he's really down. and. hes no clown. he has the finest penthouse ive seen in town. and hes cute! in his mo hair suit! and he keeps his pockets full of spending loot! ooooooowee! you ought to come and see! his dueling scar. and brand new car!
Interesting. Hmmm. I know "mole Hair" suits were "In" back then. So It may have just been the way the singer sang it. A slang phrasing of the word mole. Living in the South now, I can see how that could happen.
It is mohair, just as in the reference in the Elton John song, "Benny and the Jets". But for the longest time, I thought Elton was not singing "she's got elecvtric boots, a mohair suit", but rathert "she's got electric boobs, a mohair suit", lol. Always wonderred how they would work.
song does not work for the characters--sorry!!

No other version can win the hearts of the listeners than the original. But does this film have anything to do with the song?
Operalover12002 2 years ago
The connection between the film and song is that this song was popular at the time of this episode which is a favorite of the person who uploaded it.

it's "mole hair" suit. Popular in the 40's and 50s.

yeah its not "mole hair" its "mo hair" i have the music. i should no
