"How Do You Do" released in 1971 was an international hit single for Dutch duo Mouth & MacNeal. It was No.1 in the Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark, Switzerland, and New Zealand. It also spent 19 weeks in the Billboard Hot 100 a year later, reaching No.8 and a cover version by Scots-German duo Die Windows (later Windows) reached No.1 in Germany. The single earned Mouth & MacNeal, and its composers Hans van Hemert and Harry van Hoof, the 1972 Buma Export Award for the most records sold abroad by a Dutch musical act in that year. "Land of Milk and Honey" charted in Canada for two weeks, reaching #91, before the flip-side became the bigger hit.

In Australia, two versions reached the Top 40 simultaneously, the bigger hit being by Jigsaw.
