does anyone remember the song "Potso Potso Time from the early 1960s ???
I have googled it to death and have not come up with a thing except a One Hit wonder chart and I didn't see it there. It I think it was a Motown hit and definitely I'm kinda sure a black female singer... Anyone ??????? Come on Eugene (Frig) anyone ??? It's been that Song Karma that goes through your brain all day long. | ||

Very Interesting Woman.
I heard this on AM radio when I was 12 years old. Always loved the beat. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miriam_Mak... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pata_Pata... | ||

Totally forgot about this song! It was big in So. Fla. Used to love to hear it. Lyrics below. Apparently, the word "coconut" was not part of the lyric, yet another made up line! "I got some coconuts"! CLICK HERE TO GO TO cuffs054's LINK | ||

Another one big at the time. Brazil 66 went a long way with this song. Since she was on Ed Sullivan the song (PATA PATA) was "allowed" to be played way too loud around the pool. CLICK HERE TO GO TO cuffs054's LINK | ||

I've been listening to a radio station that plays songs from about 1955-1980 and have been having a ball hearing songs for the first time in decades. They don't just play the Top 10 hits of the era; there were some great songs that never made it above Top 30.
Unfortunately, even though I listened to Pata Pata three times last night after Charlie pointed us in the right direction, I have no recall of it at all! Great tune, though. | ||

Hee-Hee
Pata-Pata was in regular rotation on the top 40 station, WABC-AM 770 in NYC. My kid sister (now 60) always called it "the Noxzema song". If you listen to the melody, at the end of every line is sung a word that sounds like "Noxzema". Not being fluent in Afrikaan, I couldn't even guess what the real lyric was!
Glad I could help out, friends. I have WAY too many 45s from my youth, so I'm pretty good at identifying lyrics/singers/groups. | ||

WABC
Thought some here would remember and like to hear these old WABC station sounders from the 60s & 70s. After I came across this I realized the oldies station here in my area I listen to uses parts of these sounders for their station.
Also including the link to the station if anyone is interested in tuning in. Just click on the "Listen Live" link on the right of the screen. CLICK HERE TO GO TO ken's LINK | ||
