“Loving You Has Made Me Bananas“ is a song composed and performed by Guy Marks and The Big Band Banditos. It parodied music of the big band era with absurd lyrics:[1]
| “ | Oh, your red scarf matches your eyes You closed your cover before striking Father had the shipfitter blues Loving you has made me bananas. |
” |
It was first released in 1968 on ABC Records[2] reaching #51 in the charts and again in 1978 reaching #25.[3][4]
