I know this old song very well and am astonished that someone could find an interpretation of it that could characterize it as "sexist." Where? "the way you smile, the way you hold my hand... things you whisper in my ear"... etc. Don't men whisper in women's ears, hold women's hands, smile? Don't same-sex couples do the same with each other? Where is the sexism or male chauvinism in this innocent (and well crafted) bit of pop music?

@NETSY296 Are you saying you drag your aunt into every argument you have with people on youtube becuase I`m not the first am I ? You always get into arguments with people here and end up calling other people names . If you want me to quote examples of your comments to your aunt let me know. Your memory of this song triggered the sexism comment ? If you are 53 then in early 1965 when this song was a hit you were either 7 or 8 so I`m guessing back then you were happily singing along to it....

@NETSY296 LOL ! But I didnt send you a message !! I think you`ll find that when someone leaves a response to a comment , youtube send a message to the person who wrote the original message to tell them there`s been a reply. I thought you`d know that !! In any event people only need to read your original pretentious comment - referring to Dave`s sixties pop hit ditty Little Things as "the worst case of opportunist sexism ..." to realise who`s lost the plot here ! ps sticks and stones...

@1900JME1959 Naturally, you are now blocked from sending me any further personal messages - and I doubt that I am the only person you have picked on, so beware others who read this. Goodbye, nasty twerp. Hoorah!

[NETSY296]

@1900JME1959 Why are you insulting me as a person you do not even know, (let alone my writing, not having read any of my work)? My comment was a general comment on this song and video in the context of other comments and my memory of the song when it was released. Your comment is not. You are a bad YouTube user. Get a life. PS If you are truly interested in Big Band music, you'd know of my aunt, the vocalist, Doreen Villiers. She doesn't think much of your totally unwarranted insults either.

@NETSY296 a writer ? based on the content of your comment here , of pretentious twaddle it seems

[NETSY296]

Aaargh the sixties, when women did all the jumping around and work and men just sat there passing a few arrogant comments about women and themselves. Little things. How times have not changed - except that they have! Women get paid a bit. This is the worst of opportunist sexism as to what was actually happening in the sixties, musically and politically and everything. Oblivious piffle.

The original (imagine - a remake of an American song by someone from the UK) was quite good (by Bobby Goldsboro) and was quite a bit hit in the US and Canada...
