Feeling groovy refers to driving over the grooves??[edit]
I always heard that the song referred to the fact that the NYPD used to burn confiscated marijuana underneath the bridge for a short period. To get high you would stand up on the bridge. This was like in 1966. No idea if it's an urban legend. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cbmccarthy (talk • contribs) 13:17, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
length of song / explanation for title[edit]
I was once told that the song was written so that it could be sung or played precisely once while driving over the 59th street bridge, hence the name. Has anybody seen a source for this? Uucp (talk) 14:44, 24 February 2011 (UTC)
Berni Flint & Lena Zavaroni Cover[edit]
The reference related to Berni Flint & Lena Zavaroni is just as relevant as any other artist listed as performing this song and helps to make wikipedia a up-to-date encyclopedia, before you remove the current performers again, give a proper reason why they should not be listed.

- It was just one performance on one episode of a 1970s variety show. That section probably needs a cleanup ... but I'm not hell bent on removing your entry. Graham87 06:05, 3 November 2012 (UTC)
To add to article[edit]
In an effort to make this article more properly encyclopedic, shouldn't we add the musical instruments that are used in the recording of this song that appeared on the 1966 album? 173.88.246.138 (talk) 18:48, 24 June 2023 (UTC)
- Some of them are in there already ... it would need reliable sources. Graham87 03:10, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
