"Peppermint Twist" is a song written by Joey Dee and Henry Glover, recorded and released by Joey Dee and the Starliters in 1961. Capitalizing on the Twist dance craze and the nightclub in which Dee performed ("The Peppermint Lounge"), the song hit #1 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in early 1962. The original recording of the song was considered too long for release on a 45 rpm single, so it was split into two parts. It was this first part, "Peppermint Twist (Part 1)", with a length of 2:03, which became the #1 hit; the mostly instrumental second half of the recording is rarely heard today.

  • Peppermint Twist är en twistlåt komponerad av Joey Dee och Henry Glover. Låten utgavs som singel av gruppen Joey Dee & the Starliters 1961 och blev en av de största hitlåtarna under twisteran 1961-1962. Huvudsångare på låten är David Brigati, bror till The Rascals sångare Eddie Brigati. Inspelningen som är på över 4 minuter ansågs för lång för att passa som singel och delades därför upp i två delar på singeln. Peppermint Twist spelades på 1970-talet in som cover av glamrockbandet Sweet och medtogs på albumet Sweet Fanny Adams 1974. (sv)
