Paul Evans Hello this is joannie

telephone answering machine song from Happy go lucky cd.
In 1979, a surprise hit in the English charts for Paul Evans came about when he released "Hello this is Joannie (telephone answering machine)". He already had a hit back in 1961 with " Seven little girls sitting in the back seat" and had written for numerous artists since then. At the time in England, everyone had heard of a telephone answering machine but no one possessed one...

My name's Joni, and I have the chorus set as my answering machine message...not morbid because none of my friends have heard the full song ;)

I do love it though...so sad but such a great tune!

This has always been a real tear jerker of a song to me, since the very first time I heard it. One of the saddest songs ever produced - I hope this never happens to me.
