This chune never lets me down and it brings back great memories. I worked for an entire week back then to buy a cinema ticket so I could see this movie, it was big back then, we did not have much on the way of entertainment, cinema and our own creativity was it and we were never bored, always finding things to do and being content.

When I was quite young and growing up in TT I would hear that song playing on the Radio,I can also recall how many people had liked it and even our Afro neighbors Mr.and Mrs.Jones had also liked it,and she was able to sing most of it.My young Afro friends used to try to sing it,it was so popular.

It was not unusual to see favorite movies many times, I myself have probably seen it about a dozen times
