"(Here They Come) From All Over The World"
(P.F. Sloan - Steve Barri)
[The theme song from the T.A.M.I (Teen Age Music International) show. OK,
the Beach Boys' appearance was deleted from the film shortly after release,
but it's still one of the greatest aggregations of top teen talent in the
history of the eardrum. Anyone wanna add a verse about Moulty?]
