Full thread title:
Children playing a large part singing in songs, often backing up adults singers, almost to the point that they make the song their own.

Insides by Mr Wiggles most excellent Finnish contribution.

Thread needs more Miss Abrams.
From 1972. The year before everything got big in music. Probably one of the top 5 songs ever. Yes, it is that good.
Warning: serious chord changes that may be too much for some of our gentler listeners.

Actually, listening to it, you can barely hear the children until the end. shifty

Until now I had no idea there were kids in that song. Even after listening to it I'm still not sure.

I remember once pointing out that the girls in that video are now older than Clive Dunn was at the time. llama

I did think it might be yes

Actually I've watched that song about 3 times now, the novelty has worn off. It did lead me to this, which I also have never heard. Scares the heck out of me.
Songs about grandparents were obviously a thing back then.
