      to right you can go to a hundred famous classic top pop songs to this day still can't be beat. even at some big sport half time breaks a 60's/70's hit will burst on the stadium speakers & just smash the whole vibe back to another dimension..such as buttercup baby will set the mood perfectly like no other era.

    I was too much of a rocker to appreciate them at the time, but now I'm a bit of a fossil i see what a finely crafted pop group they were. Its a joy to watch and hear this music now along with their contemporary bands like edison lighthouse, middle of the road, the trems

      To me, a lot of up to date singers sound like the noise you make if you blow into a grass leaf between your thumbs- uncomfortably shrill and reedy, unlike some older style high pitched voices, such as men singing falsetto.

    • @lennylaa1686
      @lennylaa1686 5 лет назад +3

      Have to say Tara, I much prefer her PW songs compared to the disco stuff of 1974 and after.
      Although there is one exception when she belted out ''Do you believe in love at first sight?'' with a backing female trio at the UK's ''Song for Eurovision'' in 1976..sounding just like Diana Ross. A fantastic performance.
      Astonishingly, this was never released by Polly but incredibly, Dionne Warwick, of all singers(!) grabbed it but was only ever able to achieve a very, very minor hit the following year, barely getting into the charts.

    always liked pickettywitch songs & they're still comin' back strong still.. so good those days with no internet cell phones I'm glad to have been a teen in 1970. they don't make music like this any more.. four popular top hits to polly browne & there's probably a few I haven't heard.

    • @lennylaa1686
      @lennylaa1686 5 лет назад +1

      Great comment Colin, I was 13 in 1970..there was such a variety of songs, even novelty records and so much creativity. I only vaguely remember TSOF, their 1st hit but not the two after so finding these and other gems is a joy after all these years. These hits should have been a launchpad to greater things but they seemed to then come out with low key tunes of cover versions but oddly very little of their own songs.

      David, I came across a couple of entries on Birmingham History Forum from Jan. 2010, seems she lived in Grange Road in Small Heath and presumably around 1968, according to band leader Ken Freeman, she sang (maybe briefly) in his Brum group Second City Sounds. You can find them on Wiki and YT but there does not seem to be a recording of Polly on their big label records.

    A big "shout out" to co-composers John McLeod and Tony Macauley, who along with the two Rogers Cook & Greenaway, Les Reed and Barry Mason, Albert Hammond and Mike Hazlewood, Geoff Stephens, John Carter and Ken Lewis wrote so many of these hits of the mid-60s to the mid 70s...all of them legends.

      Lynda McArdle.
      Wondered how many comments I would have to wade through until I finally read the name of Tony Macauley.I would have never heard of this group or song until about 2 years ago when I requested a medley of Tony's compositions,and co-compositions.Of course he is British, and I found it interesting that his songs were even more successful in Britain than in the US generally.My two favorites of his songs (both written by Tony himself) were "Last night I didn't get to sleep at all" and Don't give up on us " the 2nd of which was recorded by David Soul...this last one being one of my 5 favorites of all time. But I also really liked some of his co-compositions "Love Grows where my Rosemary goes", and" Smile a little smile for me"

      Rightful praise for these giants of 60s and 70s who receive no public recognition for their musical legacy that still dominates much of the output on most radio shows.
      Once heard an interview, some years ago on my local BBC radio with John Carter.
      Considering his role in the 60s group the Ivy League and his writing of so many hit records, he was modest and understated on his success, that also included writing so many well-known TV commercials in the 70s.
      These are proof that so-called talent shows leave no lasting memories of popular songs like those from the 60s and 70s.

      Not sure if this was intended for me but, I'm aware that the great Judith Durham died (she didn't "pass") a couple of weeks ago and that she was the lead singer in The Seekers and that she sang "Georgie Girl" incidentally composed by the late Tom Springfield and the very much alive UK actor Jim Dale.

    always liked pickettywitch songs, there probably 4 or five hit songs this one was such a neat fluent song from polly. I bet she can still give a good rendition even after all these years. wonder she hasn't been asked to sing on graham Norton or the like in England or maybe retired now? still at 70 is the new 60 now!.

      After the 3 hits, they followed up with a cover of the Archies ''Waldo PEJ'' which was a very average ''bubblegum'' tune, it did not chart...the same fate as another 3. If you don't chart, then you don't get on TOTP..the best way to reach a large audience. The 2nd out of the 4 to flop was the very catchy ''Summertime Feeling'' and you can see a superb, recent upload from bluegutter. Polly singing live in a studio, looking gorgeous and trendy in blue!
