I beg to differ with the comment posted. The Bob Crewe Generation's version of this song was the hit version. Andy Williams did a cover of the Bob Crewe Generation's instrumental original.

@rbvo They were both USA hit recordings in 1967 but I agree Bob`s hit single was released 7 weeks before Andy`s vocal hit version . You could argue that Bob`s instrumental wasnt strictly the original as it was apparently based on a Diet Pepsi jingle composed by Sid Ramin.

Where's a time machine when you need one?

What a song. I think the intrumental is better than the vocal that Andy Williams did.

I'm an old top 40 disc jockey, and at the time the Bob Crewe Generation's version of this song came out, I was a pimply-faced teenager, aspiring to one day be a disc jockey, and had been collecting weekly "40 Star Surveys" from my local AM top 40 radio station for a few years. I remember quite clearly that the Andy Williams version didn't come out until after the BCG version had already charted. I seem to recall Pepsi using the Crewe song in a TV spot, but maybe they were different.
