Title: Groovy Kind Of Love, A

Artist: The mindbenders

Writer: Toni Wine, Carole Bayer Sager

Song Types: Pop

Key: F

Info: "A Groovy Kind of Love" is a pop song written by Toni Wine and Carole Bayer Sager and published by the Screen Gems music publishing company. It is heavily based on the Rondo movement of Sonatina in G major, op. 36 no. 5, by Muzio Clementi. The song was released first by Diane & Annita in 1965, and several covers have since appeared on worldwide music charts.

The song title was an early use of the then-new slang word "groovy". Wine, who was 17 years old when she wrote the song, said, "Carole came up with "Groovy kinda… groovy kinda… groovy…" and we're all just saying, 'Kinda groovy, kinda groovy, kinda…' and I don't exactly know who came up with "Love", but it was 'Groovy kind of love'. And we did it. We wrote it in 20 minutes. It was amazing. Just flew out of our mouths, and at the piano, it was a real quick and easy song to write." The song was recorded and covered by other bands and artists such as The Turtles and Phil Collins.

Jack McGraw, who ran the London Screen Gems offices, thought the Wine/Bayer-Sager song was a perfect match for the new group The Mindbenders (previously the backing group for Wayne Fontana, who had recently left the band) and especially their Guitarist, who now became their new Lead Vocalist, Eric Stewart. The band recorded their version of "A Groovy Kind of Love" in 1965. They liked the result so much that they included the song on their first album without Fontana, The Mindbenders (US title "A Groovy Kind of Love") and released the song to radio as their debut single. It reached #2 in the UK the week of January 19�"26, 1966 and it also hit #2 in the United States on the Billboard Hot 100 for 2 weeks in late May and early June 1966.
