Also, doesn't it look like "Say Shhh..." the first song on Minnesota public radio? Its confusing, and if it is actually true, why is it on this entry?

One dancer looks like Adele Yoshioka - one of Laugh-in's Burbank Beauties. - Sparky 06:48, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

How could this be one of the worst songs of all time? - Centrx 22:52, 26 March 2006 (UTC)

Jeeesus... make it stop!

Wait a second, 'in the land of the ice and snow' doesn't appear in this song. I just listened to it all the way through!

[edit] Performed before release?

It's interesting that Nimoy would perform the song on Malibu U a year before it was actually released (though I guess such delays aren't unheard of). Can anyone confirm that the record was actually released in 1968 and not 1967 to correspond with the televised version? Being uncomfortably familiar with the song, it's obvious the TV and record versions are the same recording (although the Malibu U one is edited down somewhat). 23skidoo 03:31, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
