  • Small Faces - Happy Days Toytown
    Life is just a bowl of All-Bran
    You wake up every morning and it's there
    So live as only you can
    It's all about enjoy it 'cos ever since you saw it
    There aint no one can take it away.
    So life is just a bowl of All-Bran - very true!
    What you say has made it very clear
    To be sure I'll live as best as I can
    But how can I remember to keep it all together
    When half the moon is taken away?
    Well, I've got the very thing
    If you can laugh and sing
    Give me those happy days toytown newspaper smiles
    Clap twice, lean back, twist for a while
    When you're untogether and feeling out of tune
    Sing this special song with me, don't worry 'bout the moon
    Looks after itself
    [Steve:] Can I have a go?
    [Ron:] Yes
    [Steve:] Yeah?
    [Ron:] Sing now:
    Give me those happy days toytown newspaper smile
    Clap twice, lean back, twist for a while
    Well now you've got the hang of it
    There's nothing you can't do with it
    If you're very tuned to it you can't go wrong.
    All together!
    Give me those happy days toytown newspaper smile
    Clap twice, lean back, twist for a while
    Well now we've got the hang of it
    There's nothing we can't do with it
    And now we're very into it we can't go wrong!
    [Stanley Unwin's nonsense here]
    Give me those happy days toytown newspaper smile
    Clap twice, lean back, twist for a while
    Well now we've got the hang of it
    There's nothing we can't do with it
    And now we're very into it we can't go wrong!

    Just looked like the happiest bunch of lads in a band, simply doing their thing.. And a pretty excellent thing it was, too!.. Such a great pity, as so many have already said and truly feel, that they were so badly mismanaged and also the (near as dammit) original lineup split up way too early.. RIP, 3 of the 4.. For me, the Small Faces lived and played some very special songs and moments that we're extremely lucky to still be able to get a look and listen in on a few of... 🙂💙

    you CANNOT beat the Small faces you just cant! They were pure magik genuine & pure. "UK OK - UK All the way" to quote another UK music maestro Ray Davies! Aww Marriott - no style he couldn't play or sing to perfection, look at Humble Pie or Packet - God what a gift he had! And Plonk - he could rave, rock or play folk & country too, I miss the real music era & I miss Marriott he was so "it" & he'll always be "it" in my rock book. "Clap Twice" indeed. cheers!

    I remember one day I played one of my mix cds while ferrying my dad to the car dealership one day...the first four songs were this one, All Or Nothing, Itchycoo Park, and Every Little Bit Hurts. He refused to believe they were all performed by the same band after they had finished up, they were so versatile, especially Steve's vocals. He and Ronnie should still be here.

    This has been one of my top 2 albums of all time, along with The Yardbirds (aka Roger The Engineer) since I was a teenager and now I'm 60. What they have in common is they were both at that transitional stage between mod/rock/britpop/R&B and Psychedelia. Exciting times when music was in a state of flux and far less predictable. So hard to choose between the greatest voice (Marriott) and his interaction with Lane (for the Small Faces) and the absolute mastery of the guitar (Jeff Beck for the Yardbirds). Happy Days!

    13-year-old Steve Marriott was in the original stage cast of "Oliver" in 1960 (along with Davy Jones of later Monkees' fame and Phil Collins) and often gave voice to the Artful Dodger's songs when Davy Jones wasn't up to it. You can really discern the stage influence on Marriott's performance in this video!
