A look at some of the other top songs from that week suggest some that may have been even more relevant thematically to this show, or to the emerging culture-change wave the characters are about to be hit with (and which is reflected in some of their wardrobe and home and office furnishings) - Paint it Black, I am a Rock, It's a Man's World, When a Man Loves a Woman, and (maybe especially) Little Girl. But I guess the Dusty Springfield is better suited to the still mostly over-30s of the show slowly and incompletely adopting to the rock and roll 60s. I am finding it harder and harder to nod appropriately and sensitively when my wife and women friends tsk tsk Don for his choice of second wife, and remember when to say "I know, I can't understand why he dumped Faye either". -- TV or Not TV ....
