4 Girls Astonish Their Class with An Old Classic Most Kids Today Have Never Heard Of

Kids these days! Their brains are full with the current pop music, and they have no time for the oldies. They have no idea what they’re missing when they put any music recorded before their birth in a metaphorical dusty attic.

If you were alive in the 1960s, you’d have heard of Herman’s Hermits, a British rock band. They were originally from Manchester, England, but became well-known in the United States in the mid-1960s.

In 1964, the band’s first blockbuster success was a rendition of American rhythm and blues singer Earl-Jean Reeves’ “I’m Into Somethin’ Good.” The Hermits went on to enjoy several years of chart-topping success, including an obligatory appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show. Herman’s Hermits were also featured on the Jackie Gleason Show and the Dean Martin Show!

Fast forward approximately 50 years… Four really brilliant young girls took a page out of their grandparents’ songbook and gave it a twist. Stepping up to the front of their college class, they begin with a barbershop quartet rendition of “I’m Into Somethin’ Good.”

Working together, their vocals are nothing short of magnificent! The four Towson University students founded the Baltimore-based “GQ: A Capella Quartet.” It’s an award-winning ensemble that performs in both a cappella and barbershop genres. They introduce themselves as “four great friends who have a passion for creating a unique sound.”

We’ve posted a video of this incredible group’s euphonious rendition of “I’m Into Somethin’ Good” that we’re confident will not disappoint.
