Always loved this song (flip side of Two Kinds Of Teardrops), two of my fav Del Shannon songs. Bought a lot of his records, and seen him once when he was on tour with Johhny Tillotson in the early 60's.
I used to play this on the jukebox in the coffee bar as I loved it - my friend thought I was playing it cos I was in love with her boyfriend called Kelly - silly girl - no whey
WELL SAID DJ W... B side?!?!? you also got discernin' taste.. am blad that Sue posted it cause it NEEDS & deserves to be heard.. > am going to post it on my web. . yours Lizzie Lane..
thanx for leaving a message.. KELLY is one of my ALL TIME favorite songs. But little known. Yet dould still be a massive success if given the chance. Its Del Shannons voice that does it for me. Sings from the heart. I intend posting ion my website if its ok with you. Am Lizzie Lane singer songwriter (front pages of singer songwriters with youtube) and web is lizzielanemusic can find site thru my channel. or keying in the above to google. my love to you ... Lizzie xx
I saw Del sing this at a rock n roll revival show a couple of months before he died. He joked that, back in the sixties, he would sing it down on one knee. "Nowadays, I can't get back up!" he admitted. It was the B-side to Two Kinds of Teardrops but could have been a hit in its own right.
My wife is away for 3 weeks in Kenya, so I'm cooking, cleaning and ironing for myself and two boys. But I'll try to have a good week! Take care - and keep posting the goodies!
Hairs still stand up after all these years.
