A gentleman from Connecticut in the USA came over to do an in depth interview on It's Good News Week for the New York Times (yes, I know, seems odd to me too but the world is increasingly odd). Alex and Danny were having an earlier meeting with me and joined us for a Full English Tea.
He went into great detail on the lyrics and the musical hooks.
It was banned in 40 out of the 50 States in 1965 but in the ten which played it (including Connecticut) it was Top 5.
Even today it brings me in nice large cheques from Australia where it's the theme for their equivalent TV show of Have I Got News For You.
