I remember an episode which featured a song called "The Dribble Twist". Does anyone know who sang it & was it ever recorded?

Thanks

50s4ever,
You must mean "The Twizzle." It's episode #24, and it was sung by Jerry Lanning, a singer and the son of pop vocalist Roberta Sherwood (http://elvispelvis.com/robertasherwood.htm). He looks a lot like her too!
By the way, the song was written by duo Mack David & Jerry Livingston (http://www.songwritershalloffame.org/exhibit_home_page.asp?exhibitId=215).
I hope this is the info you were looking for.

We won't hold it against the writers, however. :D

I was wondering if there was a connection between "The Twizzle" and the "Dribble Twist" but for some reason it sticks in my memory as "The Dribble Twist". I'm not sure if I am confusing it with something else. I guess I would have to see the episode again to be sure. Do you know of any way to actually get an MP3 of "The Twizzle"?
Thanks by the way for the reply.

50s4ever,
I re-read your original question and realized I didn't completely answer it. You wanted to know if the song had ever been released? All of my knowledge (and searching) tells me it has never been released as a single, and appeaers to have been written specifically for TDVDS.
As for getting an mp3 file, I wouldn't know of a source off hand. Sorry.
