a forgotten classic from the best decade of popular music - the 1960's

Unusual lyrics + great voice + haunting melody = timeless classic.

@LittleRaggie You said it so well, LR. Here's to memories. May they take us back and bring us forward, with a smile.

@miyagi7946 I was a big Fan of Gary Glitter , when I was a kid , its not being mean to have a go at someone who let people down by there disgusting behavior , JK and Glitter used ther fame and Money to abuse young people, and should be shunned,, all the good things they did , will never make up for there behavior ,, as the say shit sticks,,,

@GoodToTheBoneUK Great comment, JK is a sexual deviant , and a predatory Buzzard of the worst kind , shame ,,, the song was good

[LittleRaggie]

I blinked too soon, & suddenly I'm old with my days in the sun a distant memory, left & almost forgotten somewhere in time.... Then I come across songs from my youth & long forgotten memories re-emerge. This song is one of them. Your mind drifts back & your eyes slowly start to perspire as you remember friends, people, places & things of long ago.

Great song shame, about JK being a convicted Buzzard , great song ,, though

On long time ago I realized that the only way this song makes any sense is as an inside trade joke. I am sorry that breaks the spell of all that faux symbolism, but that is what was needed to pull it off in the 60's. Imagine a backroom scene: A: 'It used to be so easy to write a hit, all you had to do is rhyme June, Moon and Spoon and Voila! A Hit.' B: 'Still works' A: 'Sure ... what to you want to bet on it' B: (wager of your choice here) A: 'You're on!' .... 'A' lost the wager as we see.
