Suddenly, 1969 happened. I had no idea this song was a pre-Byrds McGuinn/Clark song, but according to Wikipedia, it is - which explains a lot.

Wow! The year I was born. There's a whole lot of '60s going on there. Or are those a bunch of hipsters performing ironically?

The Turtles were sarcastic often enough that I suspect they adopted much of the 60s trappings ironically *in the 60s*, which blows my mind. Sarcastic? Yeah: "Eleanor" was explicitly made to mock their record company wanting something vapid - hence being the only band to rhyme "better" with "etcetera".
