Remember being fascinated with the fact that the vocal harmony, when it finally kicks in, is higher in tone than than the melody, rather than lower. This is probably totally common in all kinds of music for many, many years, before and since. But for some reason, such an arrangement of notes sounded unique to these ears when young. The fact that the interval between the melody and the harmony was a minor third (?—not a music theory guy but I think this is right), and therefore had sort of a Halloweeny sound associated with it probably also added a lot of interest.
