Correct Answer: 1967
(Source)For such a happy song, "Happy Together" almost had a very sad fate. In '66, band after band rejected the demo track, but The Turtles viewed it as an opportunity to rebrand. Their label wanted a hit, and that's exactly what they got when the song knocked The Beatles from the top of the charts. More than 50 years later, you've probably heard the song thousands of times in the background of commercials, TV shows, and too many movies to count.
