SUMMARY: RUNNING TIME: 4:04 Min.
Spoofing classic doo-wop, it’s the fourth track off “Weird Al” Yankovic’s 1985 comedy album, Dare to be Stupid.
REVIEW:
This amusing homage to old school doo-wop has “Weird Al” Yankovic at the top of his game. Not only are the lyrics a spot-on romantic parody, the melody is a well-played original. More so, the quality of Yankovic’s underrated vocals is impressive re: its mock earnestness saying goodbye (or more accurately, good riddance) to an ex-girlfriend. Reminiscent in spirit to Rick Dees’ “Eat My Shorts,” Yankovic delivers a LOL comedy tune worth re-discovery.
