This was featured in the 1966 movie of the same name. Set in London, the film is a comedy/romance starring Lynn Redgrave.
The Seekers sang two different sets of lyrics over the credits and the titles of the movie. A different version was recorded and released as the single. (thanks, Brad Wind - Miami, FL)

The lyrics in the movie (over both the opening and closing) differ in several ways from the single version. I imagine there must have been another recording session to produce the single eventually released.

The Seekers were Judith Durham and three other Australians whose sound and spirit has never been duplicated. They symbolize the optimism of '60's folk music.
