Marks attracted international attention with the surprise novelty hit song "Loving 
You Has Made Me Bananas" (also remembered by its lyric "Your red scarf matches 
your eyes"), charting in April – May 1968 in the US, which parodied the medleys 
and other popular music conventions of the big band era. It was based on an old 
nightclub routine of Marks, featuring an affected band singer of the radio era 
broadcasting from a remote Pennsylvania town. The song hit number nineteen on the 
Hot Adult Contemporary chart and number fifty-one on the Hot 100. A re-release did 
similarly well in 1978, reaching number 25 in the UK Singles Chart. The UK chart 
showing led to an appearance by Marks on Top of the Pops in May 1978.
