JULIE says, “I was backstage in Australia, and I was rehearsing for a show at a nightclub.  I had my little girl, Kelly, who was just a couple of years old at the time, with me.  She got antsy, so I started to sing the song Mickey Mouse to settle her down or just get her attention.  The guitarist started playing it behind me, and we ended up doing the song in the show that night.  And it went over well.” And when JULIE recorded NICE GIRLS DON’T STAY FOR BREAKFAST in 1967, the Mickey Mouse March was one of the tracks chosen for the album.  It was also the closing number for the television show JULIE:  SOMETHING SPECIAL.
