Remember This Song?

This song got a lot of airplay when I was a high school sophomore. I had no idea what a bizarro pair they were... Catchy tune, though...

The YouTube caption:

This is a rarely seen video recorded in 1972, recently shown on German Channel ZDF. Mouth & MacNeal were a pop duo from Holland. They formed in 1971 when record producer Hans van Hemert brought the solo talents of Mouth (born Willem Duyn, March 31, 1937) and Maggie MacNeal (born Sjoukje van't Spijker, May 5, 1950) together. Their biggest hit, "How Do You Do", eventually reached #8 in the U.S. in July 1972. The song spent 19 weeks in the Billboard Hot 100 and won a R.I.A.A. gold disc on August 2, 1972. Selling over a million copies in the U.S. alone, global sales exceeded two million.

This was back when men and women all had the same hair styles.

  1. Now they all just have the same sexual orientation.

    Man, I haven't heard that song since the 70's. Hasn't been long enough, either.

  2. Someone on YouTube commented to the effect, "a great big hairy dude, some chick who grows her own sweaters, and Chucky before he was a mass murderer..."
