1. Omigod -

My very first ear worm when I was but a girl!

Thanks for the memory!

2. Same, it was a thrill when it came

on the radio when I was a tween. Luved it!

Hal Ketchum did a great version too, 80s or 90s.

4. Nice!

Do you know what year it came out? I didn't look it up.

Let me guess: 1967?

5. '67 sounds right. Ketchum was from NY state

and moved to Texas to start a prof career in music. Wonderful voice, sadly he passed away a couple years ago at 67. Past the Point of Rescue, great song is one that Hal's well known for.

3. Cool song -- "live" version (lip-synched):

Love the sharkskin suits on that album cover!

6. That's good, lively, a real 60s performance. Tx.

7. original 1965 mono single has no horns or strings (prefer it) same as You're The One...

horns and strings were overdubbed for the hits albums and/or re-recorded

12. It's a gem, one of a kind- classic 60s.
