the best songs ever

[Eric the Green]

This song from 1966 wasn't an American hit, but I got to know it after 1970 from the Live at Leeds album of that year. It exhibits the strange camaraderie of the London mod scene; the harmonies are very evocative. Not that I really know what the lyrics are about.
