Flamingokvintetten - Happy Birthday Sweet Sixteen, 1968

Posted by www.nostalgotek... Flamingokvintetten is a Swedish pop group formed in Partille outside of Gothenburg in 1960. They had their first hit in 1966 and this was a big hit for them in 1968. Some 30 or 40 albums later, they are still active.
The clip is from the Italian cult movie Sweden: Heaven and Hell also from 1968. The film which is made up of nine segments focuses on different aspects of sexuality in Sweden such as lesbian nightclubs, porn films, swinging lifestyle of married couples and sex education of teenagers. The film also examines drug addiction, alcoholism and suicides in Sweden.
I have edited this to fit the music.

Thanks for sharing. Truth be told, the group stays so close to the original arrangement that I think I'd be more impressed if I saw them covering it live, as opposed to hearing it on record. That said, it's a spritely, clean version of a great tune and those film clips really enhance the experience.

Kändes sorgligt när den här låten blev etta på tio-i-topp i 60-talets sista år, men å andra sidan, tiderna hade förändrats...
