(1968)"Watch the Flowers Grow" is the name of a song composed by L. Russell Brown and Raymond Bloodworth and popularized by The Four Seasons in 1967. Produced by Bob Crewe, the single was released in the wake of The Beach Boys' "Pet Sounds" and The Beatles' "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band", "Watch the Flowers Grow" struggled up the "Billboard" Hot 100 as The Four Seasons' music was rapidly falling out of favor with the American record-buying public (the Four Seasons' next single, a cover of The Shirelles' #1 hit "Will You Love Me Tomorrow" did slightly better, reaching #24 as the last Top 40 Four Seasons hit until "Who Loves You" in 1975).

Songwriter L. Russell Brown would compose (or co-compose) a string of hit records in the 1970s, including several recorded by Dawn featuring Tony Orlandoincluding the3rd most recorded song in the history of recorded music TIE A YELLOW RIBBON ROUND THE OLE OAK TREE.Brown also wroteThe following multi million selling songs.KNOCK THREE TIMESSOCK IT TO ME BABYSAY HAS ANYBODY SEEN MY SWEETGYPSY ROSEC'MON MARIANNE.for the 4Seasons.
