Junto a Ohio Express y su 'Yummy, Yummy, Yummy', y a los superconocidos e invisibles The Archies y su no menos superconocida 'Sugar, Sugar', el mayor exponente del género que se conocería como “música chicle” es este grupo americano que adoptaría nombre tan singular como éste de 1910 Fruitgum Company en referencia a una marca de chicles (¡claro!). Este estilo de música pop tan alegre y tan pegadiza, fué creado sin otra pretensión que la de divertir y hacer pasar buenos ratos a muchos de aquellos adolescentes de finales de los años sesenta que sólo pensaban en divertirse y pasar buenos ratos. El éxito más sonado en la carrera de los 1910, etc... lo van a lograr en 1968 con este festivo y desenfadado 'Simon Says' del que logran vender nada menos que tres millones y medio de copias, y cuya letra remeda a ese antiguo y conocido juego infantil del mismo nombre.
