HE HIT ME (IT FELT LIKE A KISS)
(Gerry Goffin / Carole King)
The Crystals
He hit me
And it felt like a kiss.
He hit me
But it didn't hurt me.
He couldn't stand to hear me say
That I'd been with someone new,
And when I told him I had been untrue
He hit me
And it felt like a kiss.
He hit me
And I knew he loved me.
If he didn't care for me
I could have never made him mad
But he hit me,
And I was glad.
(instrumental break)
Yes, he hit me
And it felt like a kiss.
He hit me
And I knew I loved him.
And then he took me in his arms
With all the tenderness there is,
And when he kissed me,
He made me his.

Haha, wow.
Re: "Man those were different times" lyrics
Carol King wrote it, so I think there is more edge to it than appears.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

It's the theme song of every woman I've ever had.
I feel that there is a fascistic element, for example, in the Rolling Stones . . .

She forgot the part about that she deserved it.....
I believe that same writing team wrote "One Fine Day" for the Chiffons. Crystals had a few good ones (I never heard that one) but I assume Phil Spector produced it, so he wouldn't have a problem with the subject matter.

Good thing that song wasn't written for Ike & Tina

Well, there are a few words in the song that rhyme with "shoe". Close enough.tepista wrote:Good thing that song wasn't written for Ike & Tina
