When music was music and not about how much Crack I can sell, or how big my "bitch's ass" is, or how many cops I killed this week. This generation (today) is fuked.
"Lightly self-mocking?" The entire thing is a parody of the best variety, one where the thing being parodied has been taken to such a ridiculous point that the real thing can no longer be differentiated from parodies of itself. Love this song.
Although it was considerably before my time, my favorite genre of music is doo-wop:) I think it is bound to make a resurgence as the hip new thing one of these days, when people finally get tired of what has been passing for music lately. Everything old is new again.
this song is one of the best doo wop music song,wish I was from that era instead of the rap crap that is going on, live what is in your heart,low and slow music ,makes it worth the night
I collect records, This is avalable on vinyl, I have it and listen to it frequetly. Kesha's "animal" is now avalable on vinyl. I'd rather snap the tonearm off of my record player than play that.
I honestly am jealous of guys who got to take their dates to carhops like this... sit back and sip a milkshake, and stare into their girl's beautiful eyes.
"Every word went right into her heart." I remember at the time that such songs came out, words still meant something and love was still thrilling, lacked vulgarity and was able to move yet unjaded heart.s
Lol I went to a 50s vintage store with my mom the other day and the had a record player playing this song, lol I almost started crying I was so happy, it felt like
boy someone really, really put the bomp on this rock n rolla. this tune just wants to make you get up and twist n shout. an oldie that will never die. barry mann really put the note into this rocket fueled jam. lets all get up and boogie to this doo woop, shoe woop and twister of a ballad. listen to the voice in the back, man if i could howl like that i'd have all the chicks coming after me. long live doo woops.
If I walked up to a girl and said, "My honey, rama lama ding dong".....she'd either slap me in my bomp bah bomp face, dip da dip me with a swift kick in the groin or stomp on my well shined boogity boogity shoe. The other shoe you ask? It's not boogity at all.
im from mexico but let me say this kind of music makes me proud of being a metalers the are our roots...im 21 and i born in the wrong year long life to the 60s
love this song! wat happened 2 the 50s!?!?!
