Описание к видео The Turtles parody themselves, 1968, nobody notices

What a lot of people don't know about Turtles is that their hit song Eleanor was in fact a spoof of their previous hit Happy Together. Lead singer Howard Kaylan had been so badgered by his record company to repeat the success of Happy Together that in exasperation he relented writing a spoof of it, while copying it's basic structure. He chose an unsexy girl's name, Eleanor (a name more likely to be somebody's grandmother!) and wrote funny lyrics. The record label loved it, so did the public. Still nobody gets it! but after you hear this story, it makes sense. Another great DVD from Rhino worth having.
