    Songs such as these, while to me have remained favorites since they were current are often and sadly overlooked in the annals of R&R but the joy, the energy, the hooks..just go to show that even the so called 'trivial' songs of the 60's were imaginative, so special, melodic and different from one another...masterpieces.

    I heard this song recently on satellite radio while in a rental car on a trip. OMG, another blast from the past. I was only about ten when this came out, but I loved it as a kid and don't think I've heard it since. What a great discovery. So many great forgotten songs!

    I was just watching the re-run of the Andy Murray-Thanasi Kokkinakis match at the Australian Open. Towards the end of the second set, the commentator said 'He tried every trick in the book in that game' - and suddenly all I could think of was Lou Christie.
    How amazing to see that other people have watched this ancient tune in the last couple of days. 1969, good lord, I was ten I suppose, absorbing everything - including great pop music.

    A hit just as I started at High School. The lessons went in one ear and out the other. This didn’t.

    This hopefully song at the height of the Viet Nam war! Another contrast in music. The fighting was so fierce at this time. Doesn't anyone remember?

      The world is still at war somewhere and new songs are still being written.

      We stopped that senseless war, yet the tentacles of the war profiteers are everywhere today. Sad and sadder.
