This is a rarely seen video recorded in 1972, recently shown on German Channel ZDF. Mouth & MacNeal were a pop duo from Holland. They formed in 1971 when record producer Hans van Hemert brought the solo talents of Mouth (born Willem Duyn, March 31, 1937) and Maggie MacNeal (born Sjoukje van't Spijker, May 5, 1950) together. Their biggest hit, "How Do You Do", eventually reached #8 in the U.S. in July 1972. The song spent 19 weeks in the Billboard Hot 100 and won a R.I.A.A. gold disc on August 2, 1972. Selling over a million copies in the U.S. alone, global sales exceeded two million.


In December 1974, Mouth and MacNeal parted ways. Big Mouth and his wife Ingrid Kup continued and formed the act Big Mouth & Little Eve, whereas Maggie MacNeal went back to solo performing. MacNeal went on to represent the Netherlands again at the Eurovision Song Contest 1980 held in The Hague, singing "Amsterdam", placing 5th in a field of 19.

'Big Mouth' Willem Duyn died from a heart attack in his hometown of Roswinkel, Holland on December 4, 2004 at the age of 67.



HOW DO YOU DO?

Once I said I wanted you, I don't remember why
I often wonder if it's true, that you could make me cry
I only know it's long ago, you said "I love you, too"
But I've got one solution left, we're gonna start anew.

How do you do?
Mm mm, I thought why not, na na na na
Just me, and you, and then begin, na na na na
Just like, before, and you will say, na na na na
Please give, me more, and you will think, na na na na
Hey, that's what I'm living for.

How do you do?
Mm mm, I thought why not, na na na na
Just me, and you, and then begin, na na na na
Just like, before, and you will say, na na na na
Please give, me more, and you will think, na na na na
Hey, that's what I'm living for.

Once I said I wanted you, and I remember why
I often wonder if it's true, you still can make me cry
And now it's not so long ago, you said "I love you, too"
'Cause I had one solution left, and that's to start anew.

How do you do?
Mm mm, I thought why not, na na na na
Just me, and you, and then begin, na na na na
Just like, before, and you will say, na na na na
Please give, me more, and you will think, na na na na
Hey, that's what I'm living for.

Hey, that's what I'm living for...
