Writing melody takes enormous talent. 99 percent of popular music today doesn't even come close. This is a wonderfully composed song and the movie of the same title is a lot of fun !
I saw this when it was originally aired on TV. I think it was on the Smothers Brothers show. They also sang "Happy Together." They were a great group.
Notice how the singers launch into some little dance right when they switch to another shot of the dude messing with the vacuum cleaner. It seemed like they jumped the gun a bit, so now the world will never know what wonderful gift from Terpsichore it has been denied.
I first saw "A Guide For The Married Man" on television in the early 70s and it's remained my favorite comedy ever since.....and made me a lifelong Walter Matthau fan!
This was from the 1967 film Guide for a Married Man and in 1968 the zany The Impossible Years came out. Search for that on youtube. The 60s was a great time to be a teen, I loved it!
@lebow1 It's the theme song for a movie of the same name - A 'sex' comedy consisting of a series of vignettes about relationships and cheating within them -The narrator character probably inspired HOW I MARRIED YOUR MOTHER's Barney.

Couldn't agree more alexalex131..music seems to be a forgotten leasure for younger generations.
The Turtles dvd is great and contains their singles with videos, plus in depth history of the band, by the band.

Guide for the Married Man was directed by Gene Kelly, with Walter Matthau and Robert Morse (who 40 years later plays Bert Cooper on Mad Men).

Good ol' Flo and Eddy! This might be from the Smothers Brothers Show. I feel sorry for that little baby at the end.
