The first time I heard this infectious number was in 1969 at my brother's engagement party and, boy, did I burn the floor dancing with a girl named Joan with ironed-out hair. It was the fashion at the end of 60's that ushered in straight hair for girls. I still love listing to this foot-tapping Tony Orlando number. He also looked very handsome in this video. Another top fave of his is "Tie a yellow ribbon round the old-oak tree" with the supremely talented Lulu, what a doll too.
