Tommy Roe - Dizzy

Release date: 1969

This was a rare Pop song with strings. The Beatles used strings on their 1965 hit "Yesterday," but it wasn't until the Disco era when strings became common in Pop.

In 1991 British comedian Vic Reeves teamed up with the band The Wonder Stuff to record a cover version of this. In Britain it topped the charts for two weeks, one more week than Tommy Roe's original version.
