Looking for a song.

[gozpel]

It is song a believe from the 40'ies, but it keeps on kicking in my head now and again.
I need to know the group and the real title.

I have a show clip from Sailor, that did it very well. And another one that might not be great to show online, little girls dancing and prancing in almost no dresses, So I ask for the original band.

I really need the jazz the brass and the lyrics, if someone could find it, I would appreciate it.

kicking in my head

Well done haroon, but not Girls, girls girls.

Very well played, but really, is this song so hard to find?

 

[Kyriakos]

I haven't heard of it. But how did you come to first hear it? (to me it sounds rather not very interesting, but that is just personal taste)
Maybe it was on some old cartoon or something?

According to wiki, Girls Girls Girls was written by a member of the band Sailor, so it's not a cover:

Sailor are a British pop/glam rock group, best known in the 1970s for their hit singles "A Glass of Champagne" and "Girls, Girls, Girls", written by the group's lead singer and 12-string guitar player, Georg Kajanus.

The Coasters 1961 ?

 

[gozpel]

It might me old mind playing tricks, but I have a brass going hard after the "girls girls singing, def hardcore brass.
I knew Sailor when I was young, but that doesn't explain that riff of trumpets and saxophones.

I believe a saw it in some black/white movie, around the Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire. Must have to be a 40ies movie.

I'm just getting old and deluded. But I will find it.

 

[sendos]

Isn't there an App to help you find it?

 

[gozpel]

If I knew an app that did that, I would find it for sure. But what app, there are millions haha.
Good point though, this is driving me crazy....sort of.

 

[Ferocitus]

The closest I can think of. And it has the chorus:

Girls talkin' bout, I got them girls talkin' bout
I got them girls talkin' bout, I got them girls talkin' bout
I got them girls talkin' bout, I got them girls talkin' bout
I got them girls talkin' bout, I got them girls, girls, girls, girls

Or is that one too many girls?

 

[gozpel]

Good thinking Ferocitus, but it's actually the Sailor song. It says it's their creation, but in my mind I still think is from and black/white movie, years ago.

Similar as Doris Day"s: Dream A Little Dream Of Me. It was a big song, but peeps made it 20 years earlier, so I still have faith in my search.

You might find some information on 1940s musicals here.

I know it's not from Kiss Me Kate, Carousel, or South Pacific.

 

[gozpel]

Thank you dear Valka, I will keep that in my search box.

Nothing is more frustrating than when you think you're right and people say it's wrong.
It's in my head, I can almost see the movie, but...it's...not...quite...there.

It's not a BIG thing, but just something my brain demands me to know, For some reason
my brain wants more from me, than I do myself. It's crazy.

 

[Valka D'Ur]

There's an Elvis Presley movie by that title.

 

[Gori the Grey]

You're not thinking of "Thank Heaven for Little Girls," are you?

That's from Gigi, twenty odd years before Sailor.

 

[warpus]

little girls dancing and prancing in almost no dresses

Wait what. Was this in Alabama

 

[Farm Boy]

I thought of Gigi, too.

Been a long time since I put that one on.

 

[Gori the Grey]

Pretty creepy to our contemporary sensibilities.

 

[Farm Boy]

Gigi? Why?

 

[Birdjaguar]

Gigi? Why?

An old guy flirting with younger women?

 

[Farm Boy]

Why not?
