Loved Frankie Lymon, (and The Teenagers). Lymon's death at 25 was a tragedy. Thanks for a "blast from the past"!

Honestly my favorite Harris song was Over & Over

My Dad would put this on the record player and sing it and dance with me and my sister.

LBPO was playing in the background on Monty Don last night and made me want to hear the whole song.

Because it was part of the soundtrack to the Stephen King move 'Christine'.

Version. As she goes after Moochie she played it to make fun of his weight.

The movie was full of 50's songs. She was a 1958 car .
