Odd little song that, but anyone who was even remotely alive that summer of '69 would have to remember it as it was the number one song most of the summer, odd that an anti-technological song would be top of the pops as man was walking on the moon for the first time, but so it goes.
Even odder, the song was written in like '64 or so when the two were at a religious college and put out on a religious label, someone at a radio station began playing it that year and RCA had Zager and Evans re-record it.
Danny Zagar is still around, he builds awesome custom guitars. A friend of mine plays one and swears that for around $700 bucks it sounds better and plays easier than his $3000 custom.
