Hi Steph Yes the song was Rosie and it was sung by Don Partridge - he was a one man band and looked very out of place performing on Top of the Pops. That song may well be why you were called Rosie - it was a favorite of mine. Here is more information about him - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Partridge ROSIE
Don Partridge - 1968
Rosie, oh Rosie I'd like to paint your face up in the sky Sometimes when I'm busy Relaxing I'd look up and catch your eye
Your eyes when they're widening Bring thunder and lightning And sunset strokes the colour of your skin Your eyes are so blue I just think of a blue sky And bumble bees buzzing on the wing
Rosie, oh Rosie It's raining when you look the other way Rosie, oh Rosie Your laughter brings the sunshine out to play
And though I just met you When I silhouetted you A highlight golden shadow in your hair I'd paint in your mind's eye A vary of blue skies Summer birds swinging through the air
Rosie, oh Rosie I'd paint your face for all the world to see Rosie, oh Rosie I'd like to paint your face eternally

Rosie, oh Rosie
I'd like to paint your face up in the sky
Sometimes when I'm busy
Relaxing I'd look up and catch your eye
Your eyes when they're widening
Bring thunder and lightning
And sunset strokes the colour of your skin
Your eyes are so blue
I just think of a blue sky
And bumble bees buzzing on the wing
Rosie, oh Rosie
It's raining when you look the other way
Rosie, oh Rosie
Your laughter brings the sunshine out to play
And though I just met you
When I silhouetted you
A highlight golden shadow in your hair
I'd paint in your mind's eye
A vary of blue skies
Summer birds swinging through the air
Rosie, oh Rosie
I'd paint your face for all the world to see
Rosie, oh Rosie
I'd like to paint your face eternally
