The song is notable for appearing in the American Top 5 three times -- each time in a different decade, performed by artists of three different ethnicities: originally African American pop singer Little Eva in 1962 (U.S. No. 1); then American band Grand Funk Railroad in 1974 (U.S. No. 1); and Australian singer Kylie Minogue in 1988 (U.S. No. 3). "The Loco-Motion" is ranked No. 359 on the Rolling Stone magazine's list of "The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time". Original and cover versions The original recording of the song was sung by Eva Boyd, under the stage name Little Eva. Boyd was actually Carole King's babysitter, having been introduced to King and husband Gerry Goffin by The Cookies, a local girl group who would also record for the songwriters. "The Loco-Motion" was the first release by the new Dimension Records company, whose releases were mostly penned and produced by Goffin and King. A cover version of the song was recorded quickly by British girl group The Vernons Girls and scored the chart the same week as the Little Eva version. The Vernons Girls' version stalled at No. 47 in the UK, while the Little Eva version reached No. 2 on the UK charts. It re-entered the chart some ten years later and almost became a top ten again, peaking at No. 11. In the United States, "The Loco-Motion" was the sixth most successful single of 1962 according to Billboard. It was also the third most successful single of 1962 in South Africa. In March 1965, Little Eva sang the song on the ABC-TV series Shindig!, and this is the only known video of her singing this song. The Little Eva version of the song was featured by the David Lynch film Inland Empire (2006). In 1962, French singer Sylvie Vartan recorded a version of the song in French called "Le Locomotion". It went to no.1 in France on October 13, 1962 and remained there for one week. In 1986, Dave Stewart and Barbara Gaskin released a version of the song as a single in May. Australian pop star Kylie Minogue released a cover version of the song in July 1987 as her debut single. The song was a success in Australia, reaching No. 1 and remaining there for seven weeks. On July 28, 1988, a re-recorded version produced by Stock Aitken & Waterman was released worldwide with the title "The Loco-Motion". Carole King herself sings the song on her live album The Living Room Tour released July 12, 2005. The album peaked at No. 17 on the US album chart on July 30, 2005. She also recorded a version for her 1980 album Pearls: Songs of Goffin and King. The song was recorded and performed by La Toya Jackson in 1992 as part of her Moulin Rouge show Formidable. The song has inspired dozens of cover versions over the years.
