A lip sync! And they tried to fool us with the coily white cords to the guitars that go no where! OH, I remember them! (Guitar player here from the 60's). Fender Jaguar there and a right-hand Paul McCartney bass (yeah, I know, its a Hoffner or something like that).
This song is not about a child molester dumb azz it is about a young man coming of age and liking girls his own age. How you get molestation out of the lyrics of this song is beyond me.
Why peeps calling the song down and saying negative things about it.I remember listening to this when I was a kid.I liked it then and now.Girl watcher doesnt exactly mean lil girls it could mean any age.I dont know where all the negative minds are thinking?Besides whats wrong with watching girls?Would you rather have the guy singing hes a boy watcher?LOL
At least one member was originally in the LTDs. Maclelsfield, NC. I must be getting senile as I remembered the sax player's name as Jim Hinnant. Oh well. Recorded at Roy Mathew's Pitt Sound, Greenville NC? Reason I ask is I heard a reel of this there as a kid.
Donne had a Number one record on a station called "Just Gotta Talk", on a Urban station in Raleigh, They quit playing it when they found out he was white....
