this is a great song ,be young be happy be foolish , does any1 no wot its called or who its by i really want 2 download it ,its off a advert but i cant remember correctly which one it is .many thanks daisyxx
the song actually goes 'be young, be follish, but be happy.' I googled that and apparently it's by Sonia, so the advert version is probably a cover. Sorry i can't tell you which advert it is.
Come on Robinia and lecheekyworm - let's pretend we're young again and show them how to really dance!! I've heard it so many times on TV lately, yet I didn't realise it was the Persil advert. The song transcends the product!
It's a great song and it was sung by The Tams, of "Hey Girl, Don't Bother Me" fame and was in the charts in March 1970. Accroding to the Guinness Book of Hit Singles, amazingly only getting to number 32.
I must admit is a delightful song, used in the Persil commercials recently, although I think that it has been used in a dozen commercials before this. It's almost one of the "sing along with the tune" songs.
