The Flute solo part of this song was actually taken from a Mozart ( or possibly Handel ) composition written over 200 years ago. Some tunes are simply timeless.
My Veetle Channel will have this song on my Retro Countdown next week as I play the hits from 6-24-67. Go To Veetle dot com, channels, music tab, Current & Classic Radio shows and listen, we have an email and you can ask us for whole shows!
I loved this song, in 1967, when I was just 10 years old! Haven't heard it in years! Wish I had the 45 single, but I don't! Still think it's a great song! Thanks for sharing!
obscure, yet to me, the most memorable song of 1967. I remember driving to disneyland with my date and this song on am radio. I think the whole evening cost about $20. Thanks to the Federal Reserve it would probably be $200 today.
i always loved this song! i used to play this when i wanted the bedroom to myself. my sister was scared of this song and when she heard it, she would run out of the room.

Well kids, back in my pioneer days before the Tube, it was a rare find to get this 45 absolute classic gem one hit wonder. Jubilee records in New York had a stable of flash in the pan records that because of their reach were hard to find. When you found one it was a BIG deal. You young folks have it way too easy now. Enjoy this wonder my "little pretty".
bjoh249 - I agree about how this song will always conjur up an image of Nancy Pelosi -- hopefully flying back to San Francisco on her BROOM instead of a private jet!

This is the version I was trying to find. Every time I was searching YouTube I kept finding the early 80s version by Klaus Nomi, which is okay, but I like this one better.
I just checked, and you're right - legal MP3 downloads are simply not available at either iTunes or Amazon. There is an expensive out of print CD at Amazon, and of course there is good ole' vinyl!
I have this song and the flip side "Ruba dub dub" on my IPOD from ITunes. I noticed that ITunes will have this song in their library and take it out and repost again. It is a timing thing. Try ITunes every couple of weeks and see if it is posted again.

Yep, good ol' vinyl is almost always the best option. I had my local record dealer look for a copy that he has for me.
