“SUGAR, SUGAR” by THE ARCHIES

“Sugar, Sugar” is a bubble gum pop song that was recorded by fictional American rock band, The Archies. In actuality, the song was sung by Ron Dante (and was accompanied by Toni White and Andy Kim).

Despite The Archies being a fictional band, “Sugar, Sugar” stands out as one of the most memorable songs of the sixties. Because songwriter Andy Kim was originally from Montreal, Quebec, in 2006, this popular track was inducted into the Canadian Songwriter’s Hall of Fame.

On this very day, September 27th 1969, it was the #1 song in America, topping Billboard’s Hot 100 chart. If you’d like to have a listen, please feel free to use the provided link. Released in 1969, here’s THE ARCHIES, with “SUGAR SUGAR”…
