Doesn't anyone remember this song?

Some girl in the bin was always singing one song or another. She was trying to remember a song and I don't know if it was this one, but it's what she put me in mind of.

I remember clearly listening to it/singing along with my grandma. Maybe she had the radio on or maybe she had the record and played it on her big old console stereo. (I would've been about 8 years old, and we visited grandma a lot)

When I finally remembered sort of how the song went, I couldn't come up with who sang it. When I got home I googled it. And wow! I remember it so well now. Hurricane Smith was Norman Smith, who was an engineer then producer for EMI records for the Beatles.

It was cool to hear it again...one of those songs you never hear anymore so it was fun to rediscover it in such an odd way. Yeah, it's very 1972, but I love it.
