And though I wasn't born in the 60's, listening to songs from that era or even before is like an escape from the reality of the misery of the times we're living in.
I growing up in downtown/Gowanus.Red Hook Brooklyn, groups like the Crytals were the sound of the street then.. at the beach, on the stoop, hot summer nites, Murray the K shows... Italian, Irish. Puerto Rican and Black took time out to chill on the sounds... johnny pumps, sipping coke, Mr. Softy,,, jeans and white t-shirts hanging out on the street corner...throwing rocks from the piers into the river, coomba.s driving thier big cars, hey what was the # tonite?
Sounds like they're saying "well he walked up to me and he asked me if I wanted to DIE. He looked kind of nice and so I said I might take a try." Thanks for posting.
Damn I'm only 19 and I've been listening to this song for YEARS! Of course it took time in finding it, but I always enjoyed this song and can't help but do a little bottay dance to it :D
I remember watching elizabeth shue dancing to this song when I was 10... hot stuff.

Great comment, and the last half sounds like poetry. No wonder. With the music and time and place--it must have been great.

Just think is the Girl Groups now would work with Phil Spector You would not Need KIISFM
All Music would be good.
This is a wonderful recording.
Larry Lavine RIP My Friend You were great in this song.
