Which British song sums up the 1960s for you?

Those Were the Days My Friend. - Mary Hopkins

Ooh, Casdon the Temptations were the coolest band on the planet...Ain't too proud to beg 1966, all nighters at the Twisted Wheel. Still going with all night turned into Sunday afternoons for us elderlies - tempus fugit and all that!

And how could I forget Adam Faith, my first crush❤️ Someone else's Baby

Halfway to Paradise Billy Fury for very early 60s memories

She’s not there-the Zombies
Colin Blunstone was on the one show recently -looking good for
80

Poetry in motion.

Wild Thing!

The Troggs.

I was 7 years old when i first saw the Beatles on our TV ,every record they made i liked ,still listen to them
A record i liked was
Judy in disguise(with glasses)
Cant remember who sang it. was a John ? And his band.
I remember in 1968ish , going to Alconbury USAF Airbase on Independence day weekend.
The Tremeloes played in one of the Hangers.
When they came off stage i asked Chip Hawkes for his autograph.
He was really nice and signed my autograph book.
Lots of 60 tunes for some reason remind me of Great Yarmouth Pleasure Beach, being taken on the roller coaster by my cousin who was 6 years older,who i had a secret crush on (blush)

All of them!! Many have particular memories. Hey Jude, being snogged by a John Lennon lookalike in an Oxford College. Tom Jones, first kiss to Green, green grass of home, Delilah was Italy one year, Greece the next. Lots and lots of Oxford balls with Marmelade, Creedence Clearwater Revival, FourTops, Dudley Moore, Marsha Hunt and many many others. And steel bands that were all the rage. We really never had it so good. First husband recently sent me a spread sheet with all the balls and groups and had he left any out. Glad I'm not still married to him!!. But it was a good time.

When they came off stage i asked Chip Hawkes for his autograph.
My daughter liked Chesney when she was a teenager - The One and Only 😀

Anything by Bob Dylan ...

Downtown by Petula Clark. As a little girl living on the rural edge of a small place in the Midlands the idea of it seemed so glamorous! It still gives me the urge to see ‘the bright lights’ where ‘there’s music and people and they’re young and alive’ (to quote Morrissey).

The Animals, We,ve got to get out of this place - me and my sister whenever we needed to change jobs

Probably all of the above but what about England swings.
Remember bobbies on bicycles two by two.
We definitely swung!

For me it’s “Feelin Groovy”. Slow down you move too fast, got to make your morning last etc,

Summer in the City, The Lovin' Spoonful.

Thanks again.
Lots of lovely suggestions there.

God Only Knows
The Beach Boys 1966.
Just the opening bars take me back to being 17. It was my best friend's and my favourite. Sadly she died in her 30s. Reminds me of her.
All the titles on his thread. As a PP said werent we lucky.
