"Do Wah Diddy Diddy" is a song written by Jeff Barry and Ellie Greenwich and originally recorded in 1963, as "Do-Wah-Diddy", by the American vocal group the Exciters. Cash Box 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."[5] It was made internationally famous by the British band Manfred Mann.
It was soon covered by British R&B, beat and pop band Manfred Mann.[6] Manfred Mann`s version was released on 10 July 1964.[7] It spent two weeks at No. 1 of the UK Singles Chart in August[8] and two weeks at No. 1 of the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in October.[9] Billboard said it "features powerful beat with Mann`s solo echoed by male chorus."[10] Cash Box described it as "a thumpin` novelty rocker that`s right up the teeners` alley."[2]
