Things- Literally

Jody Miller sings Things. This is about the most literal interpretation of a song I have seen. She is sittin' by her window, she's walkin' in the park, she's sailin' in a boat and hanging out by two monsterous juke boxes they hauled down to the canals of Venice, CA - I think? I can just see the two moving guys hired for the Scopitone shoot who had to move those things. Cigars in there mouths and after lugging them to the spot, they were done with them after about 30 seconds. Gassin' and crabbin'. I admit to loving chimes in a song and here Jody plays the air chimes. She is also sporting a very groovy striped mini skirt. Designers take note.

Wouldn't the world be a better place if there were 4 swingin' chicks in bikinis or groovy skirts just doing a mad Monkey jerk trucking down the sidewalk randomly everywhere? Just look out your window and BOOM! they are sashaying by. It would make my day I know.
