Written by Phil Spector and originally performed by the Teddy Bears. This is a version a guy could send to, or play for his girl which didn't quite work with the Teddy Bears version, great though it was.
"My first recording sessions were for rock singers in the 60's though I never got a liner credit til I recorded with folk musicians. The first guitar has the low E string tuned down 2 whole steps to C. The rest of the strings are tuned down 1 whole step. I recorded the first guitar and the vocal live, then over dubbed the bottleneck guitar. The slide guitar is in std tuning (EADGBC)"
