I love that you mentioned Ms. Martin possibly the first to perform outside of the original. What a trailblazer! I also love the kitschy surreal set pieces in "bowler brim hats." Wait another Sondheim song cue!
Everybody says don't, Everybody says don't, Everybody says don't- It isn't right, Don't-it isn't nice! Everybody says don't, Everybody says don't, Everybody says don't walk on the grass, Don't disturb the peace, Don't skate on the ice. Well, I Say Do, I say, Walk on the grass, it was meant to feel! I Say Sail! Tilt at the windmill, And if you fail, you fail. Everybody says don't, Everybody says don't, Everybody says don't get out of line. When they say that, then Lady that's a sign: Nine times out of ten, Lady, you are doing just fine! Make just a ripple. Come on be brave. This time a ripple, Next time a wave Sometimes you have to start small, Climbing the tiniest wall, Maybe you're going to fall- But it is better than not starting at all! Everybody says no, Everybody says stop. Everybody says mustn't rock the boat, Mustn't touch a thing! Everybody says don't, Everybody says wait, Everybody says can't fight city hall, Can't upset the cart, Can't laugh at the king! Well, I Say Try! I Say Laugh at the kings or they'll make you cry. Lose Your Poise! Fall if you have to, But lady, make a noise! Everybody says don't, Everybody says can't, Everybody says wait around for miracles, That's the way the world is made! I insist on Miracles, if you do them, Miracles - nothing to them! I say don't, Don't be afraid!
Why have I never heard of her? Why was Leslie Gore famous and Millicent Martin wasn't? (I was vaguely aware of TWTWTW and the theme song, but knew nothing about the singer.)
such a great voice!
Daphne Moons Mum! She always had that cheeky look in her eye 😄

awwww my favorite song from anyone can whistle
Wonderful, wonderful Millicent Martin. Great in 1964, and still great 58 years later.
I would hazard a guess at Peter Knight
Thank you for sharing this gem!!! One of my favorite songs and she delivers an exceptional performance of it.
Wonderful. A decade before Side by Side.
i live for this
Any idea who did the orchestrations? They are terrific!
I think it was this guy.

Everybody says don't,
Everybody says don't,
Everybody says don't-
It isn't right,
Don't-it isn't nice!
Everybody says don't,
Everybody says don't,
Everybody says don't walk on the grass,
Don't disturb the peace,

Tilt at the windmill,
And if you fail, you fail.
Everybody says don't,
Everybody says don't,
Everybody says don't get out of line.
When they say that, then
Lady that's a sign:
Nine times out of ten,
Lady, you are doing just fine!
Make just a ripple.
Come on be brave.
This time a ripple,
Next time a wave
Sometimes you have to start small,
Climbing the tiniest wall,
Maybe you're going to fall-
But it is better than not starting at all!
Everybody says no,
Everybody says stop.
Everybody says mustn't rock the boat,
Mustn't touch a thing!
Everybody says don't,
Everybody says wait,
Everybody says can't fight city hall,
Can't upset the cart,
Can't laugh at the king!
Well, I
Say
Try!
I
Say
Laugh at the kings or they'll make you cry.
Lose
Your
Poise!
Fall if you have to,
But lady, make a noise!
Everybody says don't,
Everybody says can't,
Everybody says wait around for miracles,
That's the way the world is made!
I insist on
Miracles, if you do them,
Miracles - nothing to them!
I say don't,
Don't be afraid!
