I always thought she had quite a unique voice. I also didn't know that Ms. Small was only 17 when she recorded "My Boy Lollipop".

Did she also do: "My Baby Thinks He's A Train"?

I was surprised when I first saw her, her looks don’t match her voice.

Always liked that song.....too young at the time to consider the implications of the words. IIRC, Peter Asher dated her for a while. RIP Ms Small.

May she rest in peace. I really liked that song when I was a kid.

Every boy grows up and dies, an unfortunate fact of life; the only exception are those who die before they grow up. Women and minorities are similarly affected, thus no discrimination.

Age? Had no idea the two of us were of the same age. Years later, the lyrics still remain firmly planted in memory. “My boy lollipop, you make my heart go giddy up.”
RIP Millie. Thanks for the sweet.
