老歌亂談(570)Da Doo Ron Ron
此曲為由寫歌者兼歌手Jeff Barry、Ellie Greenwich及唱片名製作人Phil Spector共同所寫,1963由黑人女子團體The Crystals錄唱發行,獲得告示牌熱門榜的第3名。由於此曲的成功,三人繼續合作推出了《Be My Baby》《Then He Kiss Me》《River Deep Mountain High》等知名暢銷曲。

Phil_Spector ( 1965 )
Jeff Barry和Ellie Greenwich於1962結為夫婦,也曾組The Raindrops,推出這首歌他們自己的版本,可惜婚姻只維持了三年,樂團也隨之解散。而Phil Spector則是由此首《Da Doo Ron Ron》開始,創造出所謂的「Wall of Sound」( 運用同種類多組及多樣的樂器合奏,產生厚實及豐富的音感。),之後曾製作過許多知名樂團和歌手 ( 如The Beatles、Tina Turner等 ),而在音樂界成為炙手可熱的大牌製作人。不過這位老兄的私生活似乎頗為狂亂,2003年,40歲的演員Lana Clarkson被發現自口中被槍擊,死在Phil Spector的宅邸,Phil Spector因此被判二級謀殺罪,刑期為19年,並於2009發監執行迄今。

Da Doo Ron Ron這句歌詞並不具任何意義,只是用來作歌詞間的區隔,以及製造一些趣味效果。至於歌詞中的男生Bill,據說是三人在寫歌當時,Phil有位叫Bill的朋友來訪,因此就用上了。1977,在「亂談565」才提過的Shaun Cassidy翻唱此曲,偶像就是偶像,有熱情的青少年歌迷支持,成績果然不同凡響,一舉奪得了告示牌熱門榜的冠軍。又,記得當年香港的「溫拿五虎」樂隊,也常在電視上演唱此曲,由於溫拿在YouTube上的版本音效不怎麼樣,在此就不貼了。
