[Gandalf]

One of my favourite 60's songs, knocked out in the quarter-finals by a joker song previously

Worth a second airing as it's a brilliant song, typifies the 60's for me

I couldn't remember it being nominated previously - I heard it as a soundtrack for a film recently, and immediately marked it down for this thread - as you say it typifies the sixties for me too.
