The Song of Summer 1960

The game's question
Try the title in one breath—then fill in the last word together.
Summer 1960: towels on the sand, a radio playing, and a song that made everybody laugh. It was about a yellow swimsuit with polka dots, and on August 8, 1960, it reached No. 1. Brian Hyland sang it, and the title is a real mouthful. Fill in the last word together: “Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polkadot _ _ _ _ _ _.”
To fill in: one word, six letters.
Need a hint?
It’s a two-piece swimsuit, and the word begins with “bi,” like bicycle. Then try saying the whole title without taking a breath.

Answer: Bikini—Brian Hyland’s summer hit, No. 1 on August 8, 1960.
Why this game : Laughing at a silly title is a fine way into beach days, towels on the sand, and family vacations.
