Goody Goody

I love this song. Written by Matty Malneck with lyrics by Johnny Mercer, “Goody Goody” has been sung by a host of famous singers from Ella Fitzgerald to Frank Sinatra. You can find many of their performances on YouTube. But this recording from 1936 by Johnny Johnson and his orchestra is my favorite cover. Unlike Sinatra’s version, for example, Johnson’s arrangement (along with Al Jennings’ vocals) captures the delight you feel when the person who dumped you is dumped by someone else. It’s light and funny. So many other covers lack the energy and “ha-ha!” that Johnson’s has.

Here’s the video, which we uploaded to YouTube:

John White does a pleasant job with “Whoopee Ti Yi Yo Git Along Little Doggies.” His “yip” in the chorus is perfect.
