But never really got paid. The bbc saw to that, but they can pay Gary Lineker £1.5 million for 15 minute a week on idle chit chat on footie per year. The sisters are still working in offices to keep the wolf from the door, utter disgrace..
this is one of this country,s best female vocal group ever, i had the pleasure of singn with bernie, she totally fullflied a dream for me i wont ever forget that xxx
Loved this record when the chiffons first sang it in 1966 I'm not a fan of covers normally but love the nolan sisters. Great cover these gals could sing the phone book imo, RIP Bernie taken way too soon thanks for the memories girls 💔❤
I was a mere lad of 13 at the time and I loved them all, but especially Bernie cos she had that twinkle in her eye. So sad the twinkle has gone but the memories linger.
Love this. Like them all, but I definitely had a crush on Denise when I was younger. She was kind enough to send me an email a few years ago. Made my day.
Originally, the song conjured up an image of a wet weekend in New Brighton in 1972, but later on that was changed to a wet weekend in Morecambe in 1972 and the reason for that is because it re-entered the charts in March that year. Okay, so it initially charted at the beginning of 1966 (on the same day that the electrified Lancaster-Morecambe route was closed) but sometimes a song has better chart success the second time round.

Truly awful, they couldn't sing, and couldn't dance, and murdered one of The Chiffons biggest hits in the process. Still the mums and dads loved them and bought their records.
