Little Eva Narcissus Boyd was a babysitter for Carole King and Gerry Goffin when the songwriting team was inspired to write "The Loco-Motion," a song based on a dance that Eva would do around the house.
Eva also got to sing on their demo, which impressed Don Kirshner enough to release it as it was.
