Lots of 60's chart hits were re-makes, sometimes from decades earlier. This was originally by the Exciters, who had their one hit with "Tell Him" in '63 - I didn't know this was a re-make. Written by Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich. Manfred Mann had some UK success before "Diddy" reached #1 on both sides of the Atlantic. Bill Murray ruined this song for me forever in "Stripes"...juuuust kidding.
