FIRST TIME HEARING Herman's Hermits - I'm Into Something Good REACTION

[@ranger-1214]

"Herman" is actually Peter Noone, now 74 years old and still going strong. He's regularly on a weekly show on Sirius XM playing the "golden oldies." And he and his wife married in 1968 and are still together. 😀

A bandmate thought he looked like Sherman from "Sherman and Mr. Peabody" from the Bullwinkle show, and that's where "Herman" came from.

Peter once signed a CD for me as "Peter NoOne" after we had joked around about people mispronouncing his name. He's a very outgoing guy. Definitely like fans.

[@bradsullivan2495]

"I'm Henry VIII I Am" was a song written over 100 years ago, but they did a classic pop version in 1965. "Mrs Brown You've Got a Very Lovely Daughter" is another iconic HH tune.

This song is played during a hysterical love scene montage in "Naked Gun" with Leslie Nielsen and Priscilla Presley. (Yes, youngsters, she was married to Elvis.)

Herman's Hermits were one of the few British Invasion bands that sang with a British accent. You can really hear it in Mrs. Brown You've Got a Lovely Daughter. The Kinks did at times too, but other bands sounded American.

These guys had quite a few catchy hits in the bubble gum genre. The music is simple and positive with a great hook. The bands still smiled when they performed. How could you not feel better after hearing it?

[@randybass8842]

This band was not bubble gum. They was part of the British Invasion of the 1960s, when many rock bands from England came onto the American music scene. Bubble gum music was produced by people who were more capitalists than musicians to focus on the money, then putting together a band to play it for the tween crowd (10 to 12 years old, extending up to about 15), such as the Archies, the Partridge Family, and The Osmonds. The Monkees started out as bubble gum (put together through ads in a local LA newspaper), but they quickly evolved into a true artistic band. This song was in the same flavor of "I want to Hold Your Hand" by the Beatles, a bit youthful on the love angle, to be sure, but created and played by real artistic musicians.

[@surlechapeau]

Also, this mid-sixties sound (1964 for this song) was revived off and on in later years, particularly in the eighties with songs like "There She Goes" by the La's from 1988.

Another old 'group' I don't believe you've touched on yet that were really popular in the late 50s & early 60s is the Everly brothers. Their songs 'Wake Up Little Suzi', Cathy's Clown', 'All I Have to Do is Dream', and 'Til I Kissed You' just to name a few. Oh and they also did 'Love Hurts' which you covered but not by them.. you did the Nazareth version from the 70s. And speaking of Nazareth.. you really should get back to them again.. possibly their songs 'Razamanaz', 'Holy Roller', 'Shanghai'd in Shanghai', 'Broken Down Angel', 'Woke Up This Morning', 'Hair of the Dog', 'This Flight Tonight', 'Turn On Your Receiver', etc., etc. 😀

I'm into Something Good was Herman's Hermits first hit in the USA.in 1964 It reached number 13 on Billboard singles charts, and went to #1 in England. It and Just A Little Bit Better (1965) are my favorite Hermania hits. There biggest hits were remakes of Silhouettes and Can't You Hear My Heart Beat and Henry The VIII I AM, all three from 1965. Dandy (written by Ray Davies of the Kinks) was their big 1966 hit. There's a KInd of Hush from 1967 was big as well. 1965 was their peak, They outsold both the Beatles and the Rolling Stones that year, Oops! I forgot Mrs. Brown, You've Got A Lovely Daughter from 1965 as well!

I saw Peter Noone (Herman) in concert in Toronto in 1992, and he was still great.

[@paulwagner688]

"No Milk Today"--the B side to "Kind of Hush"--is the BEST of their songs. Listen to it and you will agree

[@highpath4776]

Gouldman the writer has done a couple of versions of that, one recent lockdown one and one on Jools Holland from memory

[@AndrewCalhounSongs]

No Milk Today is a stunning piece.

A very fun group from when I was a kid. I just saw them on a PBS special. They did Henry the 8th, which is really a simple song, but we sang it all the time as kids.The audience went crazy.

[@michaelparsons5299]

I actually think a lot of the 60's songs resonate with all of us because of their purity and simplicity. There is nothing complicated about this song, but the harmonies are wholesome and beautiful!

[@laverdadescatolica5]

60s and wholesome? Sure. Early 60s when Camelot ended.

[@dianefurlong2911]

I love Peter Noone and Herman’s Hermits! He’s still touring and doing great. Really nice guy too!

[@jayeljayel4060]

My favourite Herman's Hermits song is: My Sentimental Friend. A more meaningful lyric than some of the earlier songs.

[@kkitao217]

Not one of their better known songs, unfortunately, but it was my favorite, too.

[@debrasmith5399]

I look forward to watching y'all almost every day.....thanks for the smiles!

[@rwschumm]

Great Oldie! Love It! Another group that was similar and part of the 'British Invasion' was Chad and Jeremy. More easy listening and not as much standard rock, but some really wonderful songs. Top of the list for them would be 'A Summer Song', but also 'Yesterday's Gone', and 'Willow Weep for Me'. Many other good ones too! Thanks for dipping back to this timeframe! :) PS- Also Peter & Gordon from this time.

Thank you so much for sending me down this rabbit hole. I had forgotten how many songs Herman's Hermits did that I loved. I will remember to keep revisiting them 😊

[@edallen3662]

Well if you like Herman's Hermits then you have to listen to mrs. Brown you've got a lovely daughter and then Henry the 8th come to think of it I don't think they have a bad song

[@jhonyermo]

Those two were horrible

[@rs-ye7kw]

@@jhonyermo Agree. I didn't like most of what they did. Kind Of a Hush is about the only exception.

[@lindaulik5040]

At 13 this was the first concert I went to. I screamed my way through with all the other girls. I was in love 🥰.

[@moonbeam2062]

Rob, you mentioned Bill Haley and his comets at the beginning. You need to react to Bill Haley & his Comets - "Hot Dog, Buddy, Buddy" - from "Don't Knock The Rock" - HQ 1956" It's a great video, and performance.

[@coffee-xg6my]

Yes! This Bill Haley video is awesome! Be sure and play the one uploaded by Carlafong69. It's definitely the best quality

[@wallnut6666]

Oh hell yeah., Do that one!! That's a great video for _several reasons!_ 😁

[@stevenweller1673]

I grew up with Herman's Hermits as part of the mix...this tune, *Henry the Eighth* (my personal favorite) and *Mrs Brown, You've Got A Lovely Daughter* are what come to mind but there must be others... Herman's Hermits are like comfort food, tasty and familiar... Thanks S.W.

[@supasoulproductions]

'There's a Kind of Hush' is their best song, IMO.

[@LadySueChar]

I have not even watched the video yet and I saw your Herman’s Hermits I have loved them since I was about 10 years old and I am now 65. I got to meet Peter Noone at a concert in St. Louis Missouri decades ago

[@davidlongo7391]

Love it. Check out Mrs. Brown, you'll enjoy that also. They had several great songs. Thanks for it all.

Awe I love Herman's Hermits ,I was on my way home from the Cinema and some young Lads were sitting at the back of the bus and one was singing this song, turns out they had come from the local dance hall so I went there the following week, sure enough they were there and the boy singing walked me home and the rest was history this song is responsible for us getting together ..three children later ... seems so long ago now 💕..There's a kind of Hush is another great song of theirs
