Unveiling Pussycat Mississippi 1977 in 4K

"Mississippi" is a song by Dutch country pop band Pussycat. Written by Werner Theunissen and produced by Eddy Hilberts, "Mississippi" was the group's first number-one single in their home country, as well as their only number-one single in most countries worldwide. In New Zealand and South Africa, "Mississippi" was their first of two number-one singles; it was the best-selling single of 1977 in the latter nation. Werner Theunissen wrote "Mississippi" in 1969 after being inspired by the Bee Gees song "Massachusetts". The song grabbed EMI Bovema's attention, and they decided to sign the band. By December 1975, the song had topped the Dutch Singles Chart. Its international success came in 1976, when it reached number one in Belgium, Germany, Ireland, New Zealand, Norway, South Africa, Switzerland and the United Kingdom, as well as number two in Australia, number four in Austria, and number six in Sweden. In South Africa, "Mississippi" was the highest-selling single of 1977. It is estimated to have sold five million copies worldwide. Outside the Netherlands, Pussycat would later achieve more number-one singles in New Zealand and South Africa, but in most territories, "Mississippi" was their highest-charting effort.
In the UK, the song was promoted by John Saunders Hughes through a Liverpool radio station. The lyrics are about the history of music, and how rock music became more popular than country music.

I’ve got this song in my favorites list, I do believe. I didn’t know the Pussycat band was Dutch though. Cool surprise! I lived in Tupelo, Mississippi from 1987-2011 (Elvis’ birthplace) until I moved to Alabama. Loved it there!

Great comment Diane

@@TerryYoung-Sing-Along-Channel … Thanks Terry 😊! I just wish that autocorrect thing, or whatever it’s called, would quit automatically picking what it thinks I’m gonna write partway through a song. It comes up with some doozies sometimes, like this time it changed “Pussycat” into Pussy at.
