i love LESley gore

I think my social studies teacher in school brought her up the day she died

Love her! Something about her music was just fun.

She also helped my mom and me win a pub quiz. The question was something like “What 1963 song that reached #5 on the charts was a sequel song to a previous #1 hit released that same year?”

I convinced my mom to go with “Judy’s Turn to Cry” instead of “Johnny Loves Me,” but looking back, that was a crazy difficult question, because “Johnny Angel” and “Johnny Loves Me” were #1 and #7 in 1962. Anyway, we won the quiz and I think like $50 in bar credit.
