      She's lipsyncing. That isn't Anita Darian. They do the same thing in every life performance with a different woman.
      Anita would have been 80 when this was being performed.

    great song, great group. I was a little boy during this era. A more simpler, carefree time. Not just because I was young, but because times were different then. I hate the way life is nowadays. People are crazy, such goofy ideas about society come along all the time. One wonders who has all this spare time to overthink the world. We're getting less happy because some idiots want to tell us what and what not to say and how to act, all in name of freedom for "their" ideals.
