Nancy Sinatra Bang Bang
I was five and he was six We rode on horses made of sticks He wore black and I wore white He would always win the fight
Bang bang, he shot me down Bang bang, I hit the ground Bang bang, that awful sound Bang bang, my baby shot me down.
Seasons came and changed the time When I grew up, I called him mine He would always laugh and say Remember when we used to play?
Bang bang, I shot you down Bang bang, you hit the ground Bang bang, that awful sound Bang bang, I used to shoot you down.
Music played, and people sang Just for me, the church bells rang.
Now he's gone, I don't know why And 'til this day, sometimes I cry He didn't even say goodbye He didn't take the time to lie.
Bang bang, he shot me down Bang bang, I hit the ground Bang bang, that awful sound Bang bang, my baby shot me down...

If they ever replace Mt. Rushmore, I believe I could live with this.
I lover her song Sugartown. Yeah it is sweet bubble gum but I love it anyway.

Most likely because her song was in the movie Kill Bill 1.
Whole new generation of listeners .
You beat me to it. Love that song.
On a side note, how in blazes did we go from Nancy Sinatra to Miley Cyrus in two generations?
Thanks for the memories. Nancy was the *it* girl of her time.
I’ve been listening to Frank’s recordings! Great stuff!
Watertown. The pinnacle of his recordings.
Raquel Welch did a version on tv too. You Tube has it.
Yes, I watched it, and it was terrific.
Have no clue how we got from sexy to skank in 3 decades.
Also good were Muscle Shoals, Twenty Feet from Stardom, and the documentary about Hendrix.
Meh: the Keith Richards documentary, and the Ginger Baker thing. They were OK.
The Pentatonix thing was unwatchable. Too bad because I find A Capella stuff interesting.
MTV!
That's all folks!
Half a Century ago I could do something about it
WOW
To be in that room at that time, would have been awesome.
Hope the photographer understood he was making more than History.
I would have been in Hero Heaven
(Dino looks like he was having the most fun)
Looks to me like Wayne was probably making a funny comment, and the other 3 were responding to it.
Hmmmm,
I like’m chubby!
That was a strange episode,
even for Star Trek.
Thanks.
That song got a lot of airplay here in January, 1968. It sure was weird.
