Some time back,I was listening to a commercial station (!) all request show. I requested Groove Me. Later in the show, the DJ had a contest which required the correct# caller to identify about 2 seconds of a song. U know- - - it was Groove Me

4 Seasons then turned in My Eyes adored You and Motown rejected it and dropped them. Ended up on Private Stock, went to No 1 and that led to their successful Warner Bros. era
