The last of nine straight Top 10 US singles for Herman's Hermits, this number was originally done in a 1930's movie by popular English actor/singer George Formby. His performance style was admired by many, including Peter Noone and the blokes, who did the song in their movie "Hold On!" in which the band played astronauts. George Harrison was also a big fan of Mr. Formby.

Wasn't HOLD ON the B-side of LEANING ON THE LAMP POST?
Sure was. This was a US-only single.
