I hope you'll send it to Brawk -- it's one of my favorite Spector productions and should be more famous than it is.
But I understand. You gave up everything you had to find me. And you found me broken. It's hard for you.

Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Okay. I found the recording on a Phil Spector boxed set that's sold in the UK. Just ordered it from amazon.uk (luckily, wasn't that expensive) and when I get it, I'll upload it to Brawk.
I know, I know... obsessed much?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Sweet! I have to admire our relentlessness and single-minded pursuit.
Thanks, Joe!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Sorry about your turntable, Joe.

Yay Joe Boucher! Good to see you!
The song has been stuck in my head, too, so I am glad to have it.

“Not dead yet!”
OMG, thanks Joe!
I just girl grouped around the house with it cranked high explaining to Abby the importance of girl groups and Phil Spector and their continuing influence on pop music. She just looked at me and said "Another life lesson, right?"
(And of course, because I'm just this obsessed, I'm now trying to figure out the song's original copyright.)
ETA 1963 for anyone who's, you know, insane. Like me.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Joe Boucher? I vaguely rememeber the existance of a guy by that name...

I plan to drive The Boy nuts by playing it on repeat all evening.
Although I don't want him to think I'm hinting, because -- no.
