• Fun fact: Co-wtitten by Sonny Bono. Originally recorded by Jackie DeShannon in 1963. Covered by The Searchers, The Ramines, and Tom Petty, to name a few.

• I just wanted to give OP a big, fat, sarcastic ‘thank you’ for posting this. Ever since I saw it, I havent been able to get this GD song out of my head—alternating between this version and the sweet, sublime crooning of Joey Ramone…

  ##🎶
  *I saw her today, I saw her face,*
  *it was a face I loved,*
  *and I knew I had to run away,*
  *get down on my knees and pray-ee-ay*
  *that they’d go away*
  *But still they’d begin-UH!*
  *Needles and pins-UH!*
  *Because of all my pri-ee-ide,*
  *the tears I gotta hi-ee-iiide*
