mjzee Posted January 20, 2024 Report Posted January 20, 2024 RIP. I also really liked "Remember (Walking In The Sand)" and "Give Him a Great Big Kiss". Quote
felser Posted January 20, 2024 Report Posted January 20, 2024 (edited) RIP, and that's called...sad. I was a fan as a pre-teen when they were in their mid-60's glory. Mary Weiss's attitude came through loud and clear. Here was one of my favorites, truly cinematic in scope: 1 hour ago, mjzee said: RIP. I also really liked "Remember (Walking In The Sand)" and "Give Him a Great Big Kiss". "Give Him a Great Big Kiss" introduced the principle of being "good-bad but not evil" to our young minds, and my wife and I still use that phrase! Edited January 20, 2024 by felser Quote
GA Russell Posted January 20, 2024 Report Posted January 20, 2024 "I don't know. He's always wearing shades." was the first time I heard sunglasses referred to as shades. Quote
JSngry Posted January 22, 2024 Report Posted January 22, 2024 Now there was the voice of a generation! Attitude out the ass, honest hard attitude, captured perfectly by Shadow Morton. I remain a fan, because adults are still fucking things up for young people. Otoh, you think they'd have figured out how to stop us by now. Quote
sgcim Posted January 26, 2024 Report Posted January 26, 2024 (edited) Oh no. Oh no. Oh no no no no no! RIP. My sisters used to listen to her all the time. Back then girl groups were the big thing everywhere. My older sister was part of a group that did a song called , "What's Wrong with Ringo?" It was a local hit. The lyrics were something like this: "What's wrong with Rin-go? Why won't he sing a-long? What's wrong with Ringo? Etc.. Why won't he fall in love with me? I looked it up and they weren't The Bon Bons. They just did a cover version of the Bon Bons' hit. Edited January 26, 2024 by sgcim Quote
