This was a very good time for her. She had foreshadowing "Downtown" would turn out the signal moment in her recording life that would establish her as a top star in the United States without compromising her position in Great Britain and France (not to mention numerous other countries). Had she never made it in the U.S. I think she would have been just a happy but clear what happened thrilled her after so many years of dedicated quality artistry.
@abelseeman It was very natural and still is for Petula to give woops when she sings live,this video is so precious as there is so liile live footage of the cavern!l
@mikeyenfield - With so much miming in those days, necessary with audiences allowed to go walkabout with the singers, all such performances were assumed to be mimed or suspected of it so in order to prove otherwise the singers improvised. Hence In this case the added "whoops" by Petula Clark which were effectively to signal that this was live to TV audience.
