Run! Run away! Run fast!

Some of the Greats

Different music artists in my formative years float about in my memory, as I wrote in one recent post. But these songs are in the teenage zone, and my recollection of the lyrics is pretty much lame.

Anyway,

Bobby Vee... I always loved Go Away Little Girl. My brother bought a radio, and we listened to that song over and over. Sigh.  Bobby Vee made many teenage girls sigh, myself included.

 Bobby Vee died in 2017 at age 73 years, from Alzheimer's.

The Beatles had their own song, Run for Your Life, Little Girl. I never listened to the lyrics until recently.  Creepy. Seriously, this is stalker level. I'd be scared for my life if I was this girl. Here is just one bit. The others threaten to take her head, watch her back.

"Let this be a sermon

I mean everything I've said

Baby, I'm determined

And I'd rather see you dead"

Run fast, Little Girl.

Del Shannon was famous with My Little Runaway. The organ riff was famous at the time. He seemed confused, but then again, aren't all men? My brother and I listened to this song many times over.

Where did this Runaway Girl go?  Why?

So, there you have it: 

Bobby Vee wanted a girl to go away before he begged her to stay. 

Beatles were stalkers, promised to behead the girl if she left. 

Del Shannon wondered why his girl ran away. 

These narcissistic men viewed these girls as objects, didn't they understand that? 

Obviously, all females need to watch themselves and ask serious questions about any guy who is controlling and possessive. 

Perhaps they should consider cross-country training.
