“And be back ‘fore it melts in the PAN!”… ๐ถโจ
This was one of those songs, like Motown’s “Respect” of the same era, whose effect upon the morale of our women ~ just then emerging from their demeaning cocoons and brushing up against those glass ceilings which, 75 years later, are well on their way to shattering ~ was truly incalculable.
I’d love to have been a fly on the wall at the moment its songwriter, producers and performers eyes met, carrying the realization of what good it could do…
Both great songs.
HELLyeah! ๐

Hellen was a good, generous, and kind person. I asked to interview her back in the late 1990s. She declined because of her schedule but wrote a kind letter back to me.
I believe it. In my experience, aussies usually have a fantastic manner.
