Description: |
This was a hit for Lesley Gore in 1967. It's my favorite song of hers. Song was written by Marvin Hamlisch and Howard Liebling, produced by Bob Crewe.
The song peaked at #16 on the Billboard charts.
I was able to find one backtrack with no backup vocals on it and though it was missing the French Horn, I decided to sing that part. Parts of the chorus were a little challenge but I worked with it.
Thank you if you choose to listen to me and the Social-Lites

Reply: Yes, he was one of the writers. The instrumental intro of the song reminds me of California Girls.. Thanks so much for your listen and comment |

I don’t remember this one. Great job, even the horn. Enjoyed it. |
Reply: Hi Phil.. You can find the original on youtube. Track makers not adding the French Horn.. well, it was easy for me to voice that part.. Thanks |
