There's been some talk that the Crystals etc were more "real" than Ronnettes it's clearly rot

Wouldn't Amy Wino' love to have been a Ronnette? This track is just waiting to be plucked for a cover.

Lovely stuff. I really need to brush up on my 60s girl groups. I've never heard a song by any of them that I didn't like.

Ah beth orton that's where I'd heard it, I must admit I liked her version too.

This is an awesome song! The first time I heard it was Beth Orton's cover and I've still got a soft spot for that, but this is unbeatable.
