"It was an itsy bitsy teenie weenie yellow polka-dot bikini That she wore for the first time today"
**************************************************
"Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini" is a novelty song telling the story of a shy high-school student in a very revealing polka dot bikini bathing suit (which she apparently did not try on beforehand) who stays immersed in the ocean water to hide from view, while other high-schoolers gossip about her. It was written by Paul Vance and Lee Pockriss and first released on August 8, 1960 by Brian Hyland. Hyland's version hit number one on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1960 and also made the top 10 in other countries.

Great shot - the details and colors are great. I especially like the blue net that the bug is on - it adds some extra color to the shot!

What a wonderful beetle you have here . . he looks like he is in mourning with those black drapes across his back. Fantastic quality image. (Lorraine is right . . that song catches hold! )
