The Tokens also gave us "The Lion Sleeps Tonight". Fun fact for the day.

At the time this was made, There was A "Do-Wop" show on t.v. called "Sha-Na-Na" and it was very much the "Greasers" of the 50's and Do-Wop music. As I recall, They were probably more of an Influence than "Happy Days".

2:08-2:17 Newton?? HA! I like the legend of the discovery of comedy better!

...There he was, Sir Isaac Fozzie. He was sitting under a tomato tree 1 day trying to discover the Law of Comedy. He though: lets see a good joke has to have a chicken in it. I GOT IT! Why don't chickens lay grapefruits? cause who'd wanna eat a grapefruit omelet? As luck would have it a tomato fell on his head & people started laughing. Afterwards he knew that: if you don't have a good joke all you need is a ripe tomato
