"Happy Together" reached number 12 on the UK Singles Chart in April 1967 and #13 on Top 100 Singles of 1967 in Canada. The song was written by Garry Bonner and Alan Gordon, former members of a band known as The Magicians.The song had been rejected a dozen times before it was offered to The Turtles. When performing the song on television, Mark Volman commonly "played" a different instrument not present in the song for each appearance. On Ed Sullivan he "played" a trumpet, on the Smothers Brothers a piano, and on others a French horn. This could be seen as a wink to the audience that they were lip-syncing, a common practice for 1960s television.
