I have few memories of Tommy Roe's "Dizzy" because no one owned the
single. However, our local AM station (no FM where I lived) played the
Top 5 songs after the 8 am news. A couple of us had transistor radios,
and we would try to sneak them past our parents when the school bus
came. So, hearing "Dizzy" was pretty much catch-as-catch-can.
I liked the song as did many of the girls; the other boys were of a
different opinion. What caught my attention was how the background
vocals pushed the meaning of the lyrics, making the song sound dizzy.
Oh, and those organ stabs! Bubblegum does not get much more basic than
this.
