Gibbs's vocal is very different on this take as well, esp. in the verse. The piano solo here is quite a bit more adventurous than on the other one, as you point out.
It's just a stupid pun on the word "necking"--e.g. very mild and almost innocent sexual contact. At least that's the word we used when I was a teenager. :)
Nice!

he has a kind of wry, whimsical tone to his voice, perfect for a novelty song like this.

Definitely Parker Gibbs singing. My favourite Ted Weems singer.

The vocals here are by T.P. or Parker Gibbs he does sound a bit like Cliff Edwards.

That's gotta be Ukelele Ike on the vocal. Can't think of his real name at the moment.

The alternate take. Interesting piano solo in particular.

Especially in subway stations. That's why one of them in Brooklyn is named "Neck Road." Terrific number!

Absolutely charming. A whole "Boy meets Girl" script in such a short song, and with sound effects too!
