Do wah diddy?

Question

Remember that 60's song by Manfred Mann: "There she was just a-walking down the street singing do wah diddy..."...a group made a version in the 80's...which group was it?

dear comicbookuselessknowledge: you'e very kind to have shared with us your version but NO, that's absolutely not the one I'm looking for...

Answer 1

"Do Wah Diddy Diddy" is a song performed by 1960s British R&B and pop band Manfred Mann. It is a cover version of the 1963 song by American band The Exciters, originally written by Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich. Manfred Mann's version was recorded on June 11 1964[citation needed], was released on July 10 [1] and spent two weeks in August at number one in the UK singles chart and in October of that year it spent two weeks at the number one spot in the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.

The song would later achieve worldwide fame when it was performed by Jesse and the Rippers on Full House, sometimes in medley with The Beach Boys' Kokomo.

As a result of the song's prominent use in the Bill Murray film Stripes, it has become a popular military cadence.

Lol NO NO NO you're probably thinking of the hilarious and nasty version by "2 Live Crew" baby! That's the only version from the 80's ;) and did you know that Manfred Man also sang and had a hit with "Blinded by the Light"? a Decade after "Do wah diddy"

The lyrics go:
