Amusing initial comment/observation alongs with follow up reaction/comments to this as well as throughout the thread.
Thanks to YouTube, young generations are listening/watching older music and are witness to good tunes, (relative) innocence, and care-free times.
Of further note:
The same performer here (Tony Burrows) also performed 'My Baby Loves Loving' (1970), 'United We Stand' (1970), and 'Beach Baby' (1974) for four different phantom "groups."
(Yeah, it's all Bubble Gum, and...I'm blowing a yuge bubble right now)
Sounds like a great premise for a flick. Can't believe I've never seen it.
Great movie. First time the band plays "That Thing You Do" at a college talent show. Guy, the new drummer starts off the song (which is supposed to be a ballad) too fast, transforming the song into a full blown pop rock gem, and winning the contest.
Really cool seeing the vintage gear they use
Here's the scene where the band (The Wonders) hears their song on the radio for the first time.
