The first big hit for Jay and the Americans in 1962. Its answer song came three years later and recorded by the Shangri-Las.

  • Was Jay Black the lead vocalist on this song? This one of my favorite ajY7 the americans songs ..it's this & come a little bit closer

  • Jay Black replaced Jay Traynor in 1963-64. Traynor was the lead on SHE CRIED in 1962.

  • @meghanlizadominique Wow, you're 13 and hearing music this old?? That's a good thing. And I respect your opinion and everything...but The Shangris' version is by far my top pick. Just because of its strong sound and the fact that it's about a guy and not a girl, which makes it more unheard of, especially for the time.

  • Love the Myxolydian chord progression on this tune.

  • @Soapking1965 Jay Traynor aka Howard Cane & Jay Black is aka David Blatt

  • Dowwnload the audio from this song at searchripgrab doht cohm.

  • ok so i'm only 13 but i love this song because my dad showed me! and it's so catchy! but i prefer Jay and the Americans' version wayyy better

  • Rowland S. Howard makes a quite good version too, in fact the first that I heard, followed by Who Can Say, by The Horrors a few years later.

  • It's not really an answer, more like a cover with the gender of the lover changed. This is common in songwriting when different artists cover hits.

  • @exaggeratedhandshake Well, it's not really stealing. A lot of The Horrors music represents the music they listen to. One of the reasons why The Horrors are such an interesting band is coz they do small covers of old music into their music.

  • @ringo244 If you think Jay & The Americans version is better you better get your emotions checked.

  • Definitely prefer the Jay & The Americans version..!
