About "Happy Together" by Count Dee's Hit Explosion
The Turtles' baroque-pop gem gets a karaoke-standard treatment. Count Dee's 'Happy Together' is all major-key bounce, the famous 'baa-baa' refrain intact. But the original's melancholy—the fear beneath the devotion—is erased. Here, it's just a sunny jingle, a smile without the shadow that made it real.
