Even the Bad Times Are Good

"Even the Bad Times Are Good" is a song recorded by British group the Tremeloes, released as a single in July 1967.

[1] "Even the Bad Times Are Good" was written by songwriting duo Peter Callander and Mitch Murray.

Following the number-one success of "Silence Is Golden", "Even the Bad Times Are Good" was released as a single with the B-side, "Jenny's Alright", written by the Tremeloes' Len "Chip" Hawkes and Alan Blakley.

[2] Reviewing for Disc and Music Echo, Penny Valentine described the song as "another saga of simplicity and drum-thumping much in the vein of "Here Comes My Baby".

For one moment at the beginning when everyone broke into extraordinary cackling I had my doubts and wondered if the Tremeloes were about to freak out.
