My ear worm today

[Utah Bob #35998]

Remember Freddie? 

 

[McCandless]

This one has been mine for last couple of days...

 

 

[Rip Snorter]

Kristofferson - Silver Tongued Devil.  I won't post the song to avoid infecting others! He was pretty good in Pat Garret and Billy the Kid as well.

Isn't that Annette Funicello in the white dress?

Yes, and Frankie Avalon.

I almost got bodily thrown off of a bus at Ft. Gordon, GA for bringing up this song as an ear worm:

The interesting thing is that if you go to the YouTube page that is on, and you look at the little blurb that the guy that posted the video said, he tells you that's Frankie Avalon. Does not say diddly about Annette.

I recall the song and I think that young lady is about as cute as any during that era, but the guys aren't good and their choreographer should have been shot.

I  was in love with Annette (along with about 100,000 other young teenage boys, who watched her...uh, ah... mature on the Mickey Mouse Club). It was so sad many years later when she was ill and finally died from MS.   For all the supposed hanky pankey on the Beach Blanket movies, she never acted as anything but the pure girl next door!

She had the biggest ears, didn't she?

Because FA played duo parts...Frankie and Freddy.

Almost always in my ear...catch myself humming MT quite often!

I’m trying to get the song Jr. was listening to out of my head right now. 

 

 

Maybe I’ll retaliate on him with some vintage Ray Stevens.

For me the song was marginal, but the video………….

The video was horrible, as was the female impersonating Yoko Ono!

One question:

 

Did you old timers really dance like this back in the day?
