Twinkle was stunningly awful. What about, at the other end of the scale, Millie and her Boy Lollipop?

Welsh lass Mary Hopkin scored big time with "Those Were the Days". (Popular with American soldiers in Vietnam, I understand.) Another one I really liked was Twinkle [sic]. She penned most of her own songs unlike the other sixties girls. Her big hit was motorbike song "Terry" which compares favourably with "Leader of the Pack". Both songs were banned by the BBC because of the death theme. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_J-w6RR7UQ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_J-w6RR7UQ
