About 10 years ago I found a version of He's a Loser on Audiogalaxy but their was no artist listed with the metadata. I decided to use SoundHound on it today and found it it is sung by none other than The New Christy Minstrels. I honestly figured the song was written for GI, who knew. There album came with the song on it came out in May 1965 and Don't Bug the Mosquitoes didn't air until December 1965. Kind of neat. I honestly never knew this. Amazing isn't it.

Here is the allmusic page on the New Christy Minstrels album.

Mystery solved!

I always thought that was a good enough song to stand on its own! Hooray! :lol:

Same here, I always liked it too.

Cool, but I like the Mosquitos' version better.
