great song, Tom Petty and Del were singing it on Running Down A Dream. What a great tribute for another artist to mention you and your song in his song years later.
It is #466 on Rolling Stone's list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time from 2004... The 50's bee-bop has to be the greast music of the last century. 50 yrs from now the garbage of today will be great music...nooooot
Finally! The real original version. Del Shannon sang this song many times. This is the original from 1961. The version that's played on the radio is a slightly different arrangement from 1965.
BTW, where did you get this "Absolute Golden Oldies" collection?
I heard this on american graffiti...such an awesome tune

@garin4x4 Oh, OK. I hope I can find it. It seems like a good collection, with the original recordings.
