Great Stuff. Remember playing this record over and over again as a kid. The UNTILLL is so great.

Thought that my sister and I were the only ones that knew this song! I have sang it randomly for the past 30 years and people look at me like I’ve gone crazy! The funniest thing is I had no idea he said, “untillll”…my sister and I always sang, “like hellllll!” LOL!!!! Thanks for making my super spectacular day!

My brother and I figured out the different needle drop points back then, but it was difficult to make out some of the lyrics. It is so hard to get the song out of my head when it IS a super spectacular day outside! In the Pacific Northwest there is always the possibility of unTILLLL…

I had that one! I played it over and over again, and had some of the “untils” memorized. I remember being invited to bring records for a church event, and I asked about bringing this one, “but some of the songs aren’t good to listen to” (remembering “called on in class”). I couldn’t get them to understand that I just skipped over that one, and that the rest of it was funny, and acceptable.

Unbelievable……you have made my day! I cannot thank you enough.
We lost the original, but wouldn’t be able to play it now anyway. This is my opportunity to enjoy it again and even pass down to the kids. Something I know they will absolutely luv and enjoy!

This is absolutely priceless! Like others, I’ve had this tune bouncing around my head for 30 years, and could always sing the first half perfectly but couldn’t remember any of the UNTIL’s in detail. In 1990 or 1991, I actually wrote to Mad magazine asking if they had any copies they could send me–I’d long since lost mine. I got a letter from William Gaines himself, saying sorry, it sure was popular, all sold out!

I have been singing parts of that song since I got that issue in 80 at age 14. Nobody knows that song and looks at me like I’m crazy. Thank you thank you thank you for putting the words here, I couldn’t remember all of them. Now I can sing it to my wife who thinks I’m crazy anyway. Again thank you.

I went to sleep last night with this song in my head and had to see if I could find it and here it was! Thanks be to the internet! I really wish I still had this record. It’s wild to think about how novel this really was. And how catchy. I like the previous quote about the Goodfellas cast. Much thanks!

One day my 5 year old said, “Dad can you sing me a song?” And so without even thinking, I started out with the first 1/2 of the song, getting all of the lyrics exact, but I never remembered the “Until”s very well. Thanks so much for keeping this alive! My 8 year old loves it! His brother can’t quite understand the “until”s, but we’re having fun with it regardless…Thanks again!

I had this record a loooong time ago. I still knew all the word before I found this site.

Bless you for putting this up! I still sing it from time to time. I was 12 when my uncle got this record and we listened to it for hours! Fun, fun, fun!
