Same but different

Never heard this one, let alone of him... for some reason it brought a little smile to me , just a fun song to listen to...
Contemporary with Humperdink and the Beatles?

It's a fun song on the surface, but there is a dark message if you listen closely to the lyrics.

Alan Price was keyboard player for The Animals, before leaving to form his own combo. His style was a bit lighter and, shall we say, quirkier than The Animals, who had a fairly raw gutsy sound.

Alan Price teamed up at one point with Georgie Fame, whose brand of pop was decidedly jazz-influenced, so that should give you an idea of where he was coming from.
