Why not? The groovy acoustic guitar, the slinky strings. That was a bad tune.
Especially when "Billy Joe MacAllister jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge"

Plus Bobbie Gentry was kinda fine. nod

Thats a classic! I remember being a kid and trying to sit through the movie because I liked the song so much. I still couldnt tell you just what the hell the movie was about, though.( other than the obvious)
