Good News Week

Tuesday, May 24, 2011 10:30 AMBlast from the past: "It's Good News Week" — Hedgehoppers Anonymousbookofjoebookofjoe

The one-hit wonder group's 1965 song has the most sublime lyrics.

Words and music by Kenneth King.

Sing along with me, we'll have a hootenanny.

Does that date me or what?

FunFact: there were two versions, the UK iteration (top) becoming quite controversial such that a watered-down version (below)

was released in the U.S.

And before you get your baggies in a twist about how relatively mild the song sounds today, remember, it was 1965.
