*Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. I heard the Archie Bell song and thought it was an obscurity as I'd never heard of it before..but then found it had been a No.1 in the US.

*I once knew a guy who's dad had written a song that was a Top 20 hit in the US for Lulu (a British artist but the song was not a hit here). He made a lot of money just from that one song.

The only Lulu song I remember making any US chart noise besides the 'To Sir With Love' Number One was 'Oh Me Oh My'... Was that the tune?
