"On November 5, 1988, 'The Locomotion', became the first song to reach the US Top 5 in three different versions, when Kylie Minogue's reached No.3 on the US chart. Written by American songwriters Gerry Goffin and Carole King, the song is notable for appearing in the American Top 5 three times – each time in a different decade: for Little Eva in 1962 and for Grand Funk Railroad in 1974."

Little Eva - Loco-motion(1962)
ωωω.ƒαєвσσк.σм/σzαмαηℓαя.ѕιяσηα
Thank you my friend SGT (Join to see) for sharing the official music video of Kylie Minogue performing the song made famous by Little Eva in 1962 "The Loco-motion" from August 1988. The writing team of Carole King and Gerry Goffin certainly wrote many wonderful songs.
To be honest I still prefer the original version from Little Eva in 1962.
"Locomotion" written by Carole King and Gerry Goffin
[1:]
Everybody's doin' a brand new dance now
(C'mon baby do the loco-motion)
I know you'll get to like it
If you give it a chance now
(C'mon baby do the loco-motion)
My little baby sister can do it with ease
It's easier than learning your a b c's
So come on, come on,
Do the loco-motion with me
You gotta swing your hips now
Come on baby, jump up, hmmm jump back
Oh well I think you got the knack
[2:]
Now that you can do it
Let's make a chain now
(C'mon baby do the loco-motion)
Chug-a chug-a motion like a railway train now
(C'mon baby do the loco-motion)
Do it nice and easy now don't lose control
A little bit of rhythm and a lot of soul
So come on, come on,
Do the loco-motion with me
You gotta swing your hips now
Come on, come on,
Do the loco-motion with me
Yeah
Chug chug [sampling]
[3:]
Move around the floor in a loco-motion
(C'mon baby do the loco-motion)
Do it holding hands if you got the notion
(C'mon baby do the loco-motion)
There's never been a dance that's so easy to do
It even makes you happy
When you're feeling blue
So come on come on do the loco-motion with me
You gotta swing your hips now
[END:]
Come on, come on,
Do the loco-motion with me
Yeah
Come on, come on,
Do the loco-motion with me
You gotta swing your hips now
[END:]
[repeat & fade]"
