It was Delicolor's birthday yesterday. His card, which is on his site, is from the same range that we sent Younger Son recently.As I'm writing this, Groovy Kind of Love is playing on the radio: was it Wayne Fontana and the Mindbenders? No, Terry says it's Phil Collins. That must be a cover; he wasn't the first to do it I'm sure. I'm going to have to google it to check. How did we manage with all these niggly little questions before Google?

Wayne Fontana and the Mindbenders had a big hit with "The Game of Love". Not sure about Grovy Kind of Love. I like their song.
I googled it, Steve. It was the Mindbenders - but no mention of Wayne - who had the original hit in 1966.
What we (okay, I) really want to know is: how do you dance?
I thought it was Wayne Fontana, too. Loved that song. Now I'll be humming it all night.
That is a good card.
...and oh so true!
You beat me to it! I was going to tell you it was Wayne Fontana and the Mindbenders...I LOVED their version of it...loved, loved, loved it! Recently on our Public Broadcasting station here in the States they had a special with the likes of Wayne Fontana & the Mindbenders, Peter & Gordon, Petula Clark, Gerry and the Pacemakers, the Searchers, etc., etc....OHHHHHHHH, it was SO good! Dear Hubby and I watched it and got a big kick out of all the Baby Boomers sitting out in the audience and dreaming of when they were 16 again, haha! What a trip down Memory Lane! It was far out, baby! Woooooo hooooooooo!
Sorry. It was Wayne Fontana and the Mindbenders. Phil Collins did a cover, which was ok. I'm not a Phil Collins fan, but Wayne Fontana was pretty groovy...(ouch 60s talk coming in there).
I love those cards. I have one above my desk that says "Hello, this is your computer speaking. You don't know what you're doing, do you?" which makes me laugh!
The Mindbenders brought out "Groovy Kind of Love" and had a hit with it in 1966. Phil Collins did a later, cover version of it.
