Sing along with Damon, it's not that bad is it?!

Oooh baby, I'm packing up

Leaving this town

Oh the blues got me down

Since my baby's spreading news around

About this new love that she's found

I've got my bags waiting at the station

I've already made my reservation

I can't show my hurt, might lose my reputation

Now quite hanging round, making conversation

I'm packing up, I've gotto leave, another town, yeah

Oh baby, I'm packing up, leaving this town

Lonely blues, got me down

Since my baby's spreading news around

About the new love that's she's found

I've got my bags waiting at the station

Cuz see this is a bad situation

That's why my bags are down at the station

Well see this bad situation

I'm packing up, I've got leave, another town, yeah

Oh baby, oh baby

Oh baby

Oh, I've got go, I can't take it

I can't let you know, I can't take it

I can't let you know, I'm gone baby

Bye, bye, baby

Bye, bye baby

Bye, bye baby

Bye baby

Hippo,

Ya good at this. Any chance jotting the Lyrics down to:

The Vondells - Hey girl, youve changed, and sending them in.

Never been able to figure what they say. Same as Johnny Rogers at points (think the backing bands were too loud on these two!)

[Guest Johnny One Trout]

I don't particularly like "So Is The Sun by World Column"

Whenever I hear it all that I can think about is The Jam.

I don't mean to be pernickety but shouldn't that be the other way round???? A complete rip off by Weller and co. That said SITS is not exactly my cup of tea nowadays but it was certainly relevant when it was played and bloody massive all over the country for years :o))

[Guest Johnny One Trout]

The Futures 'Party Time Man' sure comes in for a lot of stick!

Yet why is it that whenever it is played 90% of people get on the dancefloor to it.  Can they ALL be wrong, or are some people just being too precious about it?

Brian,

In a word YES :o)))

The Vondells - Hey girl, youve changed,

It's taken me 15 years and nearly wearing out the record to work these out! Still I like the idea of a young lass, in 1967 (?) Miami Valley, Dayton, Ohio turning some young lads heads in her plate-former boots and hip hugger jeans!

Well girl you dance and you dress with style

I just watched you playing darling in your mini skirt

Let do the latest dance

Now for sure, just take a chance

Now any minute I might lose control

And in to your arms I'm gonna go, go

Hey girl, my, have you changed!

Now when you were my girl you didn't look the same

You changed because you love me?

Because you love me?

Because you love me?

Ha, it's all right

Hey baby, it's out of sight

You wear bell-bottom pants in just the latest style

Every time I see you it really stupefies

In your plat-former boots and hip-huggers too

Girl you look so fair standing in your mini skirt

Hey girl, my, have you changed!

Now when you were my girl you didn't look the same

Did you change because you love me?

Because you love me?

Because you love me?

Hey girl, I need you

Hey girl, I want you

Hey girl, I want you bad

Hey girl, I dig you act

Hey girl ??. well alright

Hey baby you know it

Honey, don't you know it

You're out of sight

Hey baby, you've changed

Oh, sock it to me now because you're looking good

Sock it to me, honey, I knew you would

You know you're up-tight and out of sight

Hey, it's alright

Oh baby ???

Christ knows how you managed that... but well done you! I'll be singing along to it allday now

Cheers Hippo!

John,

It's the other way round for me, because being the young whippersnapper that I am LOL, I listened to The Jam before I got into Northern.

I'm sure that I read somewhere that Ady played World Column to Mr Weller, although I could be wrong.

Last one 'guest'. People will think I'm the guest; make yourself known or better still join up!

No more sitting around hungering for you love

I made a special request; I made it to the man above

I said, Lord, send me a true bliss

I don't intend to go on like this

You see, I done, made up my mind

I'm gonna make a change

No more moping around at home while you play the field

Getting out, yes, I want to see just what's the crowd around here

Yes , a new pleaser and when we meet I'm gonna hug and squeeze her

Cuz, I done, made up my mind

I'm gonna make a change

And it's about time that I've got strong enough to let you go

Made up my mind that I've suffered long enough and now you know

There're ain't gonna be no more moping around at home while you play the field

I'm getting out, yes, I'm gonna find me a girl who's for real

A new pretty somewhere in the city

We're gonna get down to the nitty-gritty

I'm looking for a new miss

I gotta find a true biss

I just can?t go on like this

You see, I done, made up my mind

I?m gonna make a change

I done, made up my mind

I done, made up my mind

I done, made up my mind

I'm gotta make a change

I'm gotta make a change

I got to find myself a new girl

Yes I'm looking for a true girl

I?m gotta make a change

Hey who's to say that i'm not a whippersnapper!!!!!!!! I know what you are saying about your point of reference but WC is the version and the Jam (who i've always loved BTW i even married a Jam Groupie ;o)) version pales into mediocrity next to it IMO.

[stomper45]

All tracks produced/murdered by Levine & Co on Strange World of Northern..plus

Bruce Forsyth on Blue Cat

Granny on a honda - Metromedia (I think) but can't remember the artist?

Lynn Randell - Stranger, overrated power pop. Prefer Lulu.

[Guest]

Like you said we all got different taste but I never did like Terrible Tom or Julian Covay( a white bloke from Nottingham) ??? Not too sure what Dean Barlow has to do with Northern Soul either, my mates love it but I cringe every time I hear it.

[Guest marco]

Nice to see that there's a healthy level of scorn for all things Trottover on this site. Dean Barlow and Barbara Redd are two personal red rags, as is Betty O'Brien. Must say, Girl Don't Cry on Lucky Lou and Keep It Up by BJ Thomas take some beeting IMVFHO! Other personal hates - "That's not the way to love" by wotsername and La Reine Lamarr...Jeesus Christ! Do you ever find yourself wondering if you're on the wrong scene?
