Love this song! We were having a family reunion and all of my grandfather's brothers (6) were there. This song came on and they all started singing, with the cockney flair, and my friends and I were gobsmacked. We thought it was a new song by Herman and the Hermits. Good times!
Fun puzzle, great job putting all together. I can't believe that song is from 1910, I thought it was just from ''Hermit's Hermits''!!! Live & learn on JIGIDI!! Many thanks, June!! :)))) 6:59 47
"I'm Henery the Eighth, I Am" is a 1910 British music hall song by Fred Murray and R. P. Weston. It was a signature song of the music hall star Harry Champion. In 1965, it became the fastest- selling song in history to that point when it was revived by Herman's Hermits, becoming the group's second number-one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The lead solo on the Hermits' version was played by the group's lead guitarist Derek "Lek" Leckenby.
