"Do Wah Diddy Diddy" is a song written by #JeffBarry and #EllieGreenwich and originally recorded in 1963, as "Do-Wah-Diddy", by the American vocal group #theExciters. #CashBox described the Exciters' version as "a sparkling rocker that bubbles over with coin-catching enthusiasm" and said that the "great lead job is backed by a fabulous instrumental arrangement." It was made internationally famous by the British band #ManfredMann and #covered by #FunFactory in 1995.
