Thanks for recommending this song, Professor of Rock. I've never heard of it before, and now, it's stuck in my head.

YIKES! And his orgasmic screams at the end of the song about wanting to bang the 16 year old isn't helping.

@hippie_anna_joe Do some research on the meaning of the song. The 16 year old he is referring to is a neighbor girl whose father abandoned them. She stopped by to walk his dogs, which he would give her money to do, and Benny's friend asked who she was, he replied "She's just 16 years old, leave her alone"

"She's just sixteen years old leave her alone they say. Separated by fool who don't know what love is yet." This is not the perspective of the grown man saying "leave her alone, she's too young." This is the perspective of the guy saying "She's old enough for me to sleep with - these prudes just don't get it man!"

Love that he's wearing his wedding ring in the video. Bad enough she's 16, but he's married too!

So Bad I'm removing from my library. Talk about BAD ReRecordings. Their Glen Campbell Hit's Are ALL re-recordings. I don't know if Last.fm gains some benefit from doing this or they just don't know better. I have encountered tis too often. I was a radio dj who played all these when they were hits.

I guess the shouts aren't read by the powers that be here at last.fm. This is NOT a good version of this song.

I like the studio version waaayyyy better. This one sounds like a drunk lounge singer.
