I wonder how many people who regard this as a timeless love song have actually stopped to think that this could be one of the earliest songs about masturbation in modern musical history? Mind you, the Everlys had not shied away from controversy before, as an earlier hit, "Wake Up Little Suzie" had carried with it overtones of schoolgirls shagging. And this was in the supposedly straight-laced fifties. Damn! This is even older than I am!
But don't let that put you off. This is one of the best little pop numbers you will hear from the late fifties, and there are a few around to challenge for that. A time when romance was back in the air after wartime austerity, the Everlys captured the mood just right when this came out. Melodic harmonised voices and a sweet backing track just made it a classic. And you can wank to it too!
Rating: 8/10
