      John Carter said it's him singing on the record "Let's go to San Francisco" in 1967. Tony Burrows didn't record the original track. The vocals are by John Carter, not Tony. The TV singing was mimed to John Carter's recording.

    This is probably one of the best pop song of its kind ever. You just can´t not like it. Its positivity gas goes in through your nostrils and into your system and your soul. You sympathise with this naive young man who´s crazy in love with a girl that might be crazy too (or not ?). The melody, the lead guitar...it´s all enchanted !. When i die i want to settle down in a world where you can hear "Love grows" on radio, at least once a day if you want to.

    Oh, but Love grows where my Rosemary goes
    And nobody knows like me
    She talks kinda lazy
    And people say she she's crazy
    And her life's a mystery
    Oh, but Love grows where my Rosemary goes
    And nobody knows like me
    There's something about her hand holding mine
    It's a feeling that's fine
    And I just gotta say

    And it's working so well
    That I can't get away

    Edison Lighthouse - Love Grows Lyrics:
    She ain't got no money
    Her clothes are kinda funny
    Her hair is kinda wild and free
    Oh but love grows
    Where my Rosemary goes
    And nobody knows like me
    She talks kinda lazy
    And people say she, she's crazy
    And her life's a mystery
    Oh but love grows
    Where my Rosemary goes
    And nobody knows like me
    There's something about
    Her hand holding mine
    It's a feeling that's fine
    And I just gotta say
    She's really got a magical spell
    And it's working so well
    That I can't get away
    I'm a lucky fella
    And I've just got to tell her
    That I love her endlessly
    Oh but love grows
    Where my Rosemary goes
    And nobody knows like me
    There's something about
    Her hand holding mine
    It's a feeling that's fine
    And I just gotta say
    She's really got a magical spell
    And it's working so well
    That I can't get away
    I'm a lucky fella
    And I've just got to tell her
    That I love her endlessly
    Oh but love grows
    Where my Rosemary goes
    And nobody knows like me
    Oh but love grows
    Where my Rosemary goes
    And nobody knows like me
    Love grows
    Where my Rosemary goes
    And nobody knows like me

      Better diets, better genes, and a lot less processed food with genetically-modified ingredients by that piece-of-sh&t company *Monsanto* and similar effed-up corporations. Ya' know - stuff that's downplayed by general media and considered "fake" and irrelevant by modern society. Whatever...guess *Monsanto* gets the last laugh! 😁 👍 🤣

      Tony Burrows is singing live here with a backing track behind him. In the video you hear Tony's studio recording, with the guitarist miming Tony's voice. Burrows was the UK version of Ron Dante, sang on numerous hits with fictitious groups that didn't really exist.
