ROFL -you guys are killing me.

Yeah "Day Tripper". . .As, the anouncer states "the 911targa, a developement based from the popular Beetles"

OK, fine then. I'm switching my guess to: "The Lonely Goat Herd"
from "The Sound of Music"

High on a hill top, the lonely goat heard 'lady odelady odelayhee- hoo...... It just fits, doesn't it?

"Start It Up" didn't come out until the late '70's.

The song has to be from '65 or earlier.
