I listened to "Karen" by the Lydells, thinking it would be the one I had been looking for since 1961 -- but it's not.
Back in May 1961 (when I was living in the Bronx) I remember hearing a mixed (guy(s?), gals) group singing "Karen Be Mine":
Male vocalist sang: "Please Please Please say you're in love with me,
__ ____ __ ____ ___ in misery,
Woah-oh, Woah-oh, Karen be Mine"
(female vocalists then sing twice, in the background: "Karen! Karen!" while the lead male sings twice "Woah-oh-oh-oh!!"
So... WHO are these artists??? What is the name of this song
