Good old KZread, Never lets me down. No matter how obscure the song the song that an old man like me can remember, someone out there uploads it. Thanks Mark,

Escence.......supercool, foot tapping ang drooling.

I love this recording. Such a personality performance.

Rosemary Squires was the lady who sang over a thousand advertising jingles, including 'Now hands that do dishes can feel as soft as your face, with mild green Fairy Liquid.

Well, bloody hell! I've been looking for this under the belief it was a song recorded by, get this, Joey and the limelighters! I despair. Sorry Rosemary. Haven't heard it for over sixty years. I'm 82 now but still listen to the whole gamut of 60s onwards. The whole bloody lot!! God bless and love you all xxxŵ

An old family favouRite! How great to hear it again!

Love Rosemary Squires. She was "The Voice of a Thousand Jingles" in the 1960's and 1970's, including "Hands that do dishes can feel soft as your face...." and does a tribute to the late great Alma Cogan in her live shows. A true star.

Ah, memories of the very early sixties.....when Trad Jazz was all the rage... Temperance Seven, Don’t Bring Lulu.... and the innumerable dance crazes... including the Charleston (which was SO DIFFICULT to master... and which my best friend, Timothy, and I spent many weeks trying to perfect)……. and the Osborne Bentley School of Dancing, hosted by Marjorie Barlow... all for 2/6d every Friday night from 6pm to 8pm... and walking home to save money so that I could buy a pack of 10 Nelson cigarettes.... Ah! Them’s the days!

Well I never. I loved this when it came out (an obvious cash-in on the early 60s fixation on the 20s - Temperance Seven, Dorothy Provine, etc - but I never knew it was Rosemary Squires. Next thing you know, someone will be claiming that the singer on My white bicycle and Excerpt from a teenage opera were the same chap ...

Rosemary Squires used to sing on Look Around with Cliff Michelmore. She must be getting on for 80 now.

She's still alive age3d 94 and I remember her on that early evening spot. It was the first programme broadcast during the early evening at 6.45 during the week. It brought so many new faces to our screen. Did you know that the late Rory McEwen was father-in-law to Jools Holland? He and his brother had actually appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show and were pioneers of blues music in the UK as well as the 12-string guitar.

The version sung by The Cliff Adams Singers on the former BBC Radio 2 programme Sing Something Simple was also very good. Please post a link if you find it. Thank you.

There's a great version of this from a clip from the Lawrence Welk Show here on youtube.

The first pic in this montage was Dorothy Squires, not Rosemary. Old Dot would have sued. I mean, she sued everyone else😂😂

Only one problem...the woman in the photo that starts on ).54 is Dorothy Squires (ex wife of Roger Moore), not Rosemary Squires.

Would love to know the audio source for this. It's in stereo. Want to where it's available in stereo. Thanks.

Just noticed. What was with the photo of Dorothy squires at 0:53? You started off OK with Rosemary. I told you I was old!

I seem to recall Pachalafaka was on the other side?

Love it was my party piece in my young days nobody had ever heard of it . Charleston and long beads as props memories

The vocal is a different take to the UK Columbia issue I think...
