"The Little Girl I Once Knew" #20 1/1/1966

I'm always surprised to find a record that didn't do as well chart-wise as I thought. This Beach Boys 45 barely made the Top 20. It's said part of the reason was there were too many pauses, and radio programmers didn't like dead air - too confusing to the listener. These same people said a single ought to be no longer than three minutes, too. How'd that work out?

Those radio programmers had no reason to not play this song.
I consider it among my own personal favorites by The Beach Boys.
