It's probably not hip or cool to like the music of Trinidad Lopez, III, aka Trini Lopez, but back in the early 60's he made some real feel-good music that was needed back then. I'd probably listen to the radio again if they started playing music like this today.
In the late 1950's, William Holt wrote this song. It was inspired by the Brazilian song, "Meu Limão Meu Limoeiro," that was originally written in 1930.
In 1965, this version by Trini Lopez made it to number 20 on The Billboard Hot 100 charts.
