He Hit Me (And it Felt Like a Kiss)--The Crystals (1962)
HOLY CRAP!!!!
I looked up who would write a song like that. You’ll never believe it: CAROLE KING!!! For whatever reason, the DNC uses her name for their spam CONSTANTLY!!!
Incredibly, in that song she dumps his ass. But then he hits her, so she takes him back because that proved he lover her.
Didn’t prove he was a possessive, violent ass with rapey tendencies... Nope! It proved he loved her!
