What is wrong with the '60s audience?

Although the songs are brilliant and the performance great, the public seems clumsy, awkward and even scared!

Take a look, they definitely have a problem...

Kokomo Island - named after the Beach Boys' hit

Although few people know, the place referred to as "Kokomo" in the song is fictional!

After the success of the song, two sea resorts took over the name :) One is Grassy Key, Florida and the other - Sandals Cay, Jamaica, as the song also mentions many places around the Caribbean, including Jamaica, Aruba, Bermuda, Bahamas, Martinique or Port-au-Prince (Haiti).

And now, at the end of the summer, listen :)

Gently whispering lyrics

"The leaves on the trees would be softly sighin',
If they heard from the breeze that you left me cryin',
They'd be sad, don't be bad to me."
(Lennon/McCartney)

Blue Moooon

Although I thought it was a '60s hit, "Blue Moon" is much more older, being written in 1933! More info about its origin, here.

Here are some of its numerous versions:

1935 - Connie Boswell



1950 - Billie Holiday



1954 - Elvis Presley



1961 - The Marcels - doo-wop version :)



1964 - Dean Martin



1967 - Diana Ross & The Supremes



1994 - Chris Isaac



2004 - Rod Steward
