The thing that immediately grabbed me about this song all those years ago was the echoed banjo--a very unique gimmick for its day. Add to that the very unusual melody & near-frenetic chorus--arguably one of the freshest & most unusual songs The Hollies ever came up with. A classic!
This is a great song. While the video does not fit the song theme (his ability to control himself while watching a belly dancer), the video you used is pretty good and it works with it.
you know this song is about a belly dancer- "jewel in the navel", "cymbals on her fingers". The singer is singing about his infatuation with the woman and her dancing...and the trouble his infatuation gets him into. ;-)
Cute idea, video is nice.love the song but video doesn't really fit it- song is actually about a belly dancer that the singer's infatuated with- she's got "cymbals on her fingers" and a "jewel in the navel". The song is about him trying to control himself in her presence, lol- as she's dancing.not sure if you wanted the video to reflect that or not... ;-)

Yes. I was looking for videos of the group performing, hoping they'd actually have a belly dancer in one.
