THE BEST SONGS IN THE WORLD EVER.

To compliment my recently published ‘1000 BEST SONGS LIST,’ here is one that just missed the cut.

1011-The Chiffons-Sweet Talkin’ Guy.
1966-Number 31 single.When re-issued in 1972, it peaked at Number 4.
Best Bit-At 2.09.Just think, without the original girl groups of the 1960’s, there may have never been ‘Little Mix,’ or ‘Girls Aloud,’ but we can’t blame The Chiffons for that.
Along with other all girl groups of the early 1960’s, such as The Supremes, and The Ronettes,The Chiffons were a major influence for future female artists.They initially were a trio of Judy Craig, Patricia Bennett, and Barbara Lee, having formed while all being pupils at James Monroe High School in the Bronx, New York, in 1960. A forth member,Sylvia Peterson, joined in 1962.
‘Sweet Talikin’ Guy’ was written by Doug Morris,but the writing credits also include the record labels (Laurie Records) owners,as it was common practise back then.This song was Morris’ greatest success as a writer, but he was also the producer of ‘Smokin’ in the Boys Room,’ a 1973 Number 3 Billboard single for Brownsville Station.Morris went on to become one of the most respected and influential executives in the music industry, becoming Chairman, and CEO of Sony Music Entertainment, in 2011.
‘He’ll send you flowers, and paint the town with another girl.’
