Subject: Turtles Favorites!

I picked "Happy Together" followed by "Elenore" Does anybody remember the 1989 movie called "Making Mr. Right" which featured "Happy Together"? They made a pretty cool video out of it :)

Don't remember that, Mark...but a superb (and often overlooked) group all the same...I went for...

Other: 'It Ain't Me Babe' - terrific re-work of the Dylan number, with 'Elenore' (et cetera!) coming in behind...

I chose Happy Together, even though everytime I hear it now, all I can think of is the Shrek movie (which I loved), at the end when they're singing that song! :D

Other--"Outside Chance." I found this 1966 p*ssed-off rant against a stuck-up girl (most of the great 60's garage-punk songs were p*ssed-off rants against stuck-up girls) on the Nuggets CD box set. It's pretty angry for the Turtles, maybe that's why I like it so much.  :)

The chubby guy with the glasses and the Tiny Tim hairdo. But that may have been after he joined Flo & Eddie...

Howard Kaylan and Mark Volman were co-lead singers in the Turtles up until about 1970. (They were also later known as Flo and Eddie.)  After the Turtles broke up, Kaylan and Volman joined Frank Zappa's band for a year or so (and appeared in Zappa's movie 200 Motels).

Happy together is a worldwide hit so naturally i voted for it, but the next best is Eleanor.

Imagine me and you, i do
I think about you day and night,its only right
to think about the girl you love to hold so tight
so happy together...........

"eleanor Gee i think youre swell,

Eleanor can i take the time
to ask you to speak your mind,
tell me that you love me better............
