Lyrics:
She ain't got no money
Her clothes are kinda funny
Her hair is kinda wild and free
Oh, but Love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows like me
She talks kinda lazy
And people say she she's crazy
And her life's a mystery
Oh, but Love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows, like me
There's something about her hand holding mine
It's a feeling that's fine
And I just gotta say
She's really got a magical spell
And it's working so well
That I can't get away
I'm a lucky fella
And I've just got to tell her
That I love her endlessly
Because Love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows, like me
There's something about her hand holding mine
It's a feeling that's fine
And I just gotta say
She's really got a magical spell
And it's working so well
That I can't get away
I'm a lucky fella
And I've just got to tell her
That I love her endlessly
Because Love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows like me
It keeps growing every place she's been
And nobody knows like me
If you've met her, you'll never forget her
And nobody knows like me
The lead singer Tony Burrows a session singer sang lead. He was the voice of several studio groups, including White Plains, The Pipkins, and Brotherhood Of Man, First Class ("Beach Baby") and the Flowerpot Men ("Let's Go To San Francisco"). He famously appeared on one Top of the Pops show three times in one night when three different groups.
John Carter said it's him singing on the record "Let's go to San Francisco" in 1967. Tony Burrows didn't record the original track. The vocals are by John Carter, not Tony. The TV singing was mimed to John Carter's recording.
The voice of "Let's go to San Francisco" is the songwriter and producer, John Carter
Then is Tony Burrows also a chosen mimer by John Carter on "Let's go to San Francisco"?
John Carter and Ken Lewis, having no interest in going on the road to promote the record, created the group from a hand-picked collective of recording studio session musicians and vocalists. Led by vocalist Tony Burrows,
@@northnsouth6813 They always did this sort of thing back then. Impostors act as the original singer. The group with Tony Burrows as the lead vocalist mimed John Carter's studio recording voice for TV promotional performance. Andy Locke mimed Tony's voice for promo.
This infectious and catchy song has remained one of my all-time favorites since hearing it on my return from an RAF posting in Cyprus with my family that very month of February 1970.
This song suddenly popped into my head this morning. It’s been YEARS!
This song picks you up from wherever you are and dusts you off!
Tony Burrows - the greatest session singer ever, bar none.
The best 😊
The 70s, the best music.😊
He was everywhere
Yes
@atlasking6110:
Ron
Dante might have something to say about that ...
but I doff my cap to studio cats: they make the music world go round!!
🤌🏒🚨🏒🤌
WOW, this Edison Lighthouse song is a treasured one hit wonder!!
What a great song and Tony Burrows was a brilliant singer and performer and he fronted so many bands
Possibly the greatest pop song in history
Absof*ckinglootely, and I'm a music freak especially of that era.
Not quite she loves you is the greatest pop song ever but I see what you mean
No that is she loves you but it's definitely a proper pop song in the top ten 👍
All those young Girls are now in their late sixties early seventies My how time flies
WHEN INSTRUMENTS WERE ACTUALLY PLAYED AND SONGS WERE ACTUALLY SUNG
Nah they lipsycend for this one the drummer is not even playing
The lead singer is Tony Burrows. He is a very talented musician who has the distinction of having been in more different top 40 charting groups than anyone else.
😂tt😂t
A great song when bands sang and played instruments I was 4 years old in 1970 bring back the70s and 80s
One of the best songs ever!
5/2/2024 Sounds as good today as it did when I first heard this.
Briliant performance by Tony Burrows and the gang the girls are very beautiful
Dancers are my favorite part
Perv
@@HelloGoodbye2085 Prude.
I always wanted to be a go-go dancer, alas, born 10 yrs too late. Looks so fun!
Tony Burrows is legendary. A true workhorse!
best looking birds ever. gorgeous
One of my all time fav songs
Melodic,Harmonious.Joyful. a wholly lovesome. song from a wonderfully wild period,......!!! Thank. You. !!!!
I so love this song 🎵 this is my song! Let's dance 💃 🤪 ♥️ thank you from my heart for sharing ♥️ blessings too you and all your loved ones in Jesus' name, Amen 🙏
I’ve loved this song forever.
You go chickies !!!!
MAGNIFICENT MASTERPIECE from Master Musicians, top of the line solid gold standard of excellence, a favorite for over 50 years
What a massively underrated band. They have 5 or6 excellent songs.
This one was used in Shallow Hal
Underrated is Overrated
Just a fabulous song and one of my favourites. The late 60s to early 70s was a great time for music.
Tony Burrows was a BEAST! ALSO he was the lead singer of The First Class- Beach Baby! He ALSO had 4 other top 10 hits WITH 4 OTHER BANDS! Can you name them?
"Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes)" by Edison Lighthouse, "United We Stand" by Brotherhood of Man, "My Baby Loves Lovin'" by White Plains, "Gimme Dat Ding" by The Pipkins.
Love them ...🏴💕💕🧘👩❤️💋👨🙏🙏
love seeing this video reminds me of when I was 17 and those girls dancing in miniskirts makes me enjoy the memory more
I was 12 😊
I was 12
I was 11😃
When the notes begin, the youth,
energetic and nostalgia will be
echoed in your mind joyfully.
This is probably one of the best pop song of its kind ever. You just can´t not like it. Its positivity gas goes in through your nostrils and into your system and your soul. You sympathise with this naive young man who´s crazy in love with a girl that might be crazy too (or not ?). The melody, the lead guitar...it´s all enchanted !. When i die i want to settle down in a world where you can hear "Love grows" on radio, at least once a day if you want to.
Good times back then...
The first time I heard this song was 1971 I think and I never stopped loving it❤❤❤❤❤😂
Those wonderful dancers, if still with us are now probably Grandmothers
Love the dancers...great song too.
Reminds me of my childhood my dad used to sing this song regularly
Great to see them singing it live and not just lip syncing.
Um their guitars are not plugged into anything lol.
@@hardyharhar9union rules from the time. The music is mimed to, but it's not the version from the record but from a version that the musicians would have recorded earlier in the day. The vocals however are live.
Love this song ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Fantastic live version
I love this clip, it may be the one I view the most. The two girls dancing at 1:24 never fail to make me laugh--not a care in the world!! Interesting that on the recording Tony Burrows does not sound British, but here there are a few places where he is unabashedly a Brit! I love it!
They probably needed a chiropractor after the show! LOL
@@libra74677 Possibly, but she sure looks flexible to be, the one on the right with the bare midriff sure does. It's great to be young, agile, and indestructable.
And then you had some American singers who sounded British when singing.
IM NOW 65...I WAS IN GRADE 7 WHEN THIS WAS ON THE RADIO.....THE SONG IS FULL OF JOY.....THOSE GIRLS REMIND ME THE GIRLS IN MY SCHOOL HIP SEXY AND GORGEOUS...NOW IM OLD Cant remember my name..no teeth ...no hair...were did time go.hahahaha
Don't worry . At least we had a beautiful youth😀
I never been in love with a crazy girl, although i had a crush on (what many considered to be) a female nerd named Nina when i was 15, in the winter of 1987. Anyway, she was seriously, constantly in love with a ("cool") guy who just bullied her all the time. No, the teenage years is not the favorite part of my life. But this song is DEFINITELY one of my favorites. Extremely effective positive pop that is timeless !. ♥♥ 👍👍
The girls were the best looking back then!
Plenty of memories attached/
I was 11 in 1970. Men were lucky to have sexy REAL girls then! Gorgeous ( I knew it too at 11 )
I love this song
So tight. I remember this great catchy song back then had no idea what they looked like. Weren't allowed telly at my boarding school!
You will note that the musicians are not playing a note, this is because none of them played on the record, the music is from the TOTP orchestra per musician union rules. Tony's vocals are live and excellent , as he DID sing on the record. Play the disc and you can hear the differences
And in 1970 ALL of her hair was kind of wild and free 😄
Love this song! ❤❤
Great tune. Was just 12 when this came into our days and i remember it well.
great tune - this guys voice is on a number of hits from the era
Tony Burrows.
Such good tunes
My brother's 8th grade teacher's (a nun) real name was Rosemary...oh she got teased...great song!!
Loved the song & go-go girls are cool! Looks like a lot of fun!! 💃🎶♥️
In the early 60s I had a small reel to reel recorder that I played in my car that had this song on it.
Love this song
Boy, those were the days with real singing and songs..no Debbie jeebe rap crap
There’s just something about those 60’s and 70’s chicks
They were hot as a fox in a forest fire ☮️
Yes thank God I got to marry one 😊 I’m 72 now and she’s passed away but we had a great experience. Nothing will ever be like the 60s again!❤
Ay yo
Very good band very beautiful song ❤❤❤
I'm still in my early thirties but would absolute love to be born in this decade love the fashion style music bands still listening to this day if you are also follow me give me a like 06/12/2023 happy Xmas 😊😊😊
I was 12
I was 11
One of my favorite songs from the year I turned 21 years-old, and married to a young woman who was 'poetry in motion' in 1972.
What happened then? Are you still married to her?
@@saudasif3374 She passed away in 2016 after heart surgery. Thank you for asking.
Love grows where my rosemary goes❤❤❤❤❤
Such a great song!
She ain't got no money
Her clothes are kinda funny
Her hair is kinda wild and free
Oh, but Love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows like me
She talks kinda lazy
And people say she she's crazy
And her life's a mystery
Oh, but Love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows like me
There's something about her hand holding mine
It's a feeling that's fine
And I just gotta say
She's really got a magical spell
And it's working so well
That I can't get away
I'm a lucky fella
And I've just got to tell her
That I love her endlessly
Because Love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows like me
There's something about her hand holding mine
It's a feeling that's fine
And I just gotta say
She's really got a magical spell
And it's working so well
That I can't get away
I'm a lucky fella
And I've just got to tell her
That I love her endlessly
Because Love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows like me
Fadeout:
It keeps growing every place she's been
And nobody knows like me
If you've met her, you'll never forget her
And nobody knows like me
La la la- believe it when you've seen it
Nobody knows like me
Music in the past was so much better than the autotuning techno crap we have today
Vocals were processed even back then.
there’s still great music coming out you sound like a corny oldhead 😭
@@kevingoins9858 Not very much - just well-produced instrumental and mixes that made their natural voices sound even better. Sounds like a defensive excuse for today's *TWERKIE-TWERKIE-BANG!-BANG!!!...BANG!!!!* music for the uncivil and uncapable of recognizing natural talent!! 🤣
Granted, there are still a tremendous number of great voices out there today, but the ones that are autotuned technocrap are just that - CRAP - and indicative of todays masses (of who knows what?) that consume them. And those who are into *that* are just *pathetic!* 😝😁🤣
Girl, sorry to break it to you but this is not live 😭
@@larkefedifero💯👍🥇🏆
Ĺove it❤
Magnifique 🤩 merci beaucoup.
Música linda!
Mi favorito 😻😻😻
Lovely birds
Every one of them. Not one fat MickyD chomping twat in sight.
And not a tattoo in sight
@@nickhall5959 Yeah I hate tattoos it makes women look cheap.
Women with loads of tattoos from my experience are not too bright either.
They're all in their 70s now...................
@@jamesswing2115 Great description James
Love it❤
The best 😊
I have this song on a old LP with mixed 70s songs it belonged to my eldest sister and on the cover is the person they used in the vidoe .
I think Tony once appeared on one edition of Top Of The Pops with 3 different bands, I'm guessing this one,White Plains and Christie?
White Plains and Brotherhood of Man - not Christie
Thanks matey.
Just an oldie saying great memories
Me too ❤
Nothing grows where my Great Dane goes…..
Check the miniskirts
bring the mini shirts back awe those were the days
@@billyg310 1970 was the pinnacle of women's looks and dress makeup hair nothing but fine and no tattoos or piercings all natural girls! I was 11 but I knew it then
All those girls were so blonde! Reminds me of todays girls. 1:34 blonde in the middle looks like Sable Starr, the notorious “baby groupie”.
Remembering Donna Sligh from Middle River. Wondering if she ever thinks about me?
Tony Borrows is the original singer of this song, from my understanding this was a studio demo and it was released. Edison lighthouse was the name given to promote a video. And the song. There is no real Edison lighthouse band.
And a regular backing singer for orchestra
Tony is a great singer and should be more well known. Someone should colourise this
They discovered the original colour signal is still in this recording hidden and can be brought out again
Fabulous record ❤
Girls were fitter then than now
purer gene pool
What about the MEN??
@@KittyGrizGriz Same. Fat boys and girls were few and far between back then.
Because fat girls and fat men were kept out of tv show limelight. That's why you only see fit women and men here.
Better diets, better genes, and a lot less processed food with genetically-modified ingredients by that piece-of-sh&t company *Monsanto* and similar effed-up corporations. Ya' know - stuff that's downplayed by general media and considered "fake" and irrelevant by modern society. Whatever...guess *Monsanto* gets the last laugh! 😁 👍 🤣
Tony Burrows. I think he had a few one hit wonders with various pop bands
Grandma has some nice moves @1:29
yep, I completely get your comment :) I also bet our nice little grandma was doing really naughty things back in those days
When women look like women fashionable stylish attractive.
Love Grows may refer to:
"Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes)", a 1970 song by Edison Lighthouse🎺🎷🥁🎸❤️🎶
Skinny, no tattoos and clean..no rap crap 😎✖️
Damn right! They were the best
Hate rap crap 😅
My granddaughter was looking through my high school yearbook from this era and asked "How were you all so skinny when you all ate bacon and eggs for breakfast and mashed potatoes for dinner?
Absolutely correct. This Music is Harmonious in its songs and lyrics ,and optimistic in content. As for 'Rap!' it is basically base and beastly.
Why do u feel a need to denigrate one art form(literally the biggest in the world) in order to enjoy another. How does that make sense to u?

didnt the singer have three number ones with three different bands ?
Correct Tony was brilliant
Those were the years when women were women not like today
And small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri were real small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri
The BEST!

✨💜✨ILY my love DBX ✨💜✨
Was he the first to sing it on Top of the pops or was the one in the Music video, Andy Locke?
I prefer Andy Locke
Tony Burrows sung it first👍
Andy Locke didn't sing it - he was just a pretty face for the music video. :)
How come this group looks different from another early video?. Like not same group?
I'm thinking the same thing... other videos are long haired and bearded ...and to me not the same people
I think this group was thrown together studio musicians just for this song and wasn't really a real group.
And so there was more than 1 incarnation of "Edison Lighthouse".
@@MrK623 Same with the Brotherhood of Man, Tony Burrows, Sue & Sunny, John Goodison and
Roger Greenaway, writers and session musicians. The later BoM who won ESC were a different bunch .
These are the real performers here, that is Toy Burrows performing this song, there is another video using stand-ins.
I wonder if these were the recruited to tour Greenfield Hammer or other session musicians tied to Bell Records in the UK ? Certainly the other TOTP performances differed
Sandra dee and paul loved Elton john and crocodile rock at 138th st shakey's pizza parlor in parkland when sandy loved her waffle stompers levi 501s and bodysuits and she had a dog named pansy, paul loved joe namath and the new york jets and had a dog named archie .sometimes 1972 seems like yesterday
Isn't that Peter Noon on guitar?
no
That's a different singer from the video?
This is Tony Burrows, a session singer, and the original.
The video was the image the record company wanted, but the BBC musicians' union insisted the real musicians be used on the show.
@@Comfortzone99 Indeed. The BBC didn't allow lip-synching. They sometimes snuck in the studio backing track but the vocals were always live. This was all live or live-to-tape.
Clock the middle-aged gentleman in suit and tie at 2:03, standing stage-side and looking bank-manager-ish. The right age to have fought in World War II as one of England's heroes, even if not the right age to turn up on Top of the Pops. Was he there as an adult chaperone at the dance?
Well spotted. Thoughtful and incisive comment!
Looking at a cold clinical analysis of WWII, without the emotion, the British Army performed really badly. Very much a: stop, 'I've done my bit', have a brew, go souvenir hunting - with a quite high rate of surrender. A trade union (according to Antony Beevor) style atmosphere existed in the British Army in WWII which really stopped it performing very effectively. I suppose, who could blame them after what happened to their fathers in WWI. Max Hastings often rips into their battlefield performance in WWII. The RAF and Navy did somewhat better. Partly as they got a 'higher caliber' of recruit. Also, the majority of people did not serve in the military during WWII. Reserved professions were much more protected, and expanded, after the acute shortages experienced during WWI.
@@leod-sigefast In Honour of my Dad, His two brothers, and all the other Warriors of WW11, shove your "clinical analysis" up your ARSE!
Unfortunately the irony in the pop songs/videos is lost on most of us, however well intentioned.
Why does the guitarist sing lead on another video of this song by Edison Lighthouse?
Probably cos he was the chosen 'mimer' when the lead singer was unavailable ❗⁉️
@@shanelawson5072 No it's two different vocals. You can hear the difference
Tony Burrows is singing live here with a backing track behind him. In the video you hear Tony's studio recording, with the guitarist miming Tony's voice. Burrows was the UK version of Ron Dante, sang on numerous hits with fictitious groups that didn't really exist.
@@davewhiting9730 you see... ⁉️I was correct.... That guitarist in the other video is miming Tony Burrows' studio recording voice.
Hey guys, not the same guitarist. A Look-alike. The guitarist miming on anther video is Andy Locke.
Are these the same guys from the music video for this song?
No.. The BBC musician's union insisted the real performers appeared on the show and not the 'eye candy' the record company was putting out.
@@Efferpheasants Interesting. Thank you 👍
@@Efferpheasantswho is the young guy in the video then?
@@desertrose1226 No idea, probably models or extras. just to give it the look of the time
@@desertrose1226 Andy Locke.
These guys don't look and sound stupid at all.
