The kingsmen do a great version of this too with fuzztones. It is on You Tube also.

An Arvin on top of a Magnavox Stereo Theatre? Pretty portable, and a fun song! The Rockyfellers have tons more personality than THE Rockefellers. Hands down.

Had no idea that this was the real version, I was used to the jazz version. Interesting piece of history I just learned...

@surfside48 I agree with you, though I should write it "eye igri wit yew" and add a "hahahahahahaha" to the end. After all, if "everybody is doing it", by definition it must be good, right? :-)

Growing up my father recounted a story of the group The group originally named the Rockafellers but the rich family made them change their name...

another classic song that i will sing and remember for many years

[WestBrighton65]

Man, I was just a kid when this version came out! Very cool! If you listen to "You Don't Have To", by 'The Beeds' (posted on youtube) the lead singers have the same unique voice!

[amichip]
