After #1 Act REJECTED Famous Couple's SONG-They Had Their BABYSITTER Do It…Hit #1!-Professor of Rock

Coming up… Eva Boyd wasn’t a singer, and had never earned a penny performing…She was a babysitter! And she hadn’t even been filling those duties for long. But when an emerging songwriting couple, Gerry Goffin and Carol King, handed her a song called Loco-motion that they’d written for somebody else and was rejected, she agreed to give it a try. What happened next was nothing short of remarkable. With one joyful, unpolished take, Loc-motion became an unstoppable hit, sparking a dance craze and launching an unlikely sensation. This song would not only hit #1 but It would be a hit over and over again for many different artists over the next few decades. Get this… Loco-motion was a #1 hit 4 times! A rock band and two foreign acts would all take it to the top of the charts. This is the story of how a household helper became star—and, ohhhh how quickly a star can fade. The chronicle of this bittersweet journey and the anthem that outlived it all is NEXT on Professor of Rock. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Executive Producer Brandon Fugal Honorary Producers Holly Hammet, Remnarc, Kevin riley, Paul Moore II, CharleyAnne ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out my Hand Picked Selection Below Professor's Store Van Halen OU812 Vinyl Album https://amzn.to/3tLsII2 The 80s Collection https://amzn.to/3mAekOq 100 Best Selling Albums https://amzn.to/3h3qZX9 Ultimate History of 80s Teen Movie https://amzn.to/3ifjdKQ 80s to 90s VHS Video Cover Art https://amzn.to/2QXzmIX Totally Awesome 80s A Lexicon https://amzn.to/3h4ilrk Best In Ear Headphones (I Use These Every Day) https://amzn.to/2ZcTlIl ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check Out The Professor of Rock Merch Store -http://bit.ly/ProfessorMerch ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check Out Patron Benefits http://bit.ly/ProfessorofRockVIPFan Help out the Channel by purchasing your albums through our links!

Gerry Goffin and Carole King were one of the most prolific songwriting duos of the Rock Era. Gerry crafted the lyrics, while Carole composed the melodies for dozens of unforgettable hits that defined 1960s pop culture. Their partnership skyrocketed in 1960 when the Shirelles took their song Will You Love Me Tomorrow to #1, marking the beginning of their incredible success. Gerry planted the seeds of a song in the back of his mind for a few years, but never found the right moment to bring it to the forefront. When he sat down to write it at last, he knew his wife and writing partner, Carole King, would think the song was silly, so he defended it in the set up before unveiling it to her.."This is going to sound stupid," Gerry said to Carole..."But what the hell....don't all the biggest fads start out that way?” Carole had a sharp instinct for a hit. Instead of poking fun at the lyrics like Gerry expected, she came up with a melody that he thought sounded like a locomotive. That sound became the spark for what would become “The Loco-Motion.” a song that three different acts would take to the top 5 The inspiration behind The Loco-Motion may trace back to two Brill Building hits, Uptown and Spanish Harlem,produced by Phil Spector. In Don Kirshner: The Man with the Golden Ear, Rich Podolsky recounts how Al Kirshner of Aldon Music couldn’t quite understand the appeal of these songs but encouraged his writers to create what he described as “songs I don’t understand.” Another spark came from "Mashed Potato Time" by Dee Dee Sharp, part of the “mashed potato” dance craze..
