The Knack 1979 - Good Girls Don't live (lyrics warning) [youtube video link]

Live performance of the band w/ the original lyrics - not the radio lyrics. The ones from the album.

My Sharona was obviously huge. This song was also a big hit as well.


TOPICS: Music/Entertainment
KEYWORDS: music; tilshes
Doug Fieger (scum atty Geoffrey Fieger's brother) is looked at by some as a predator or pedophile because of some of the song content on that 1st album.

Lyrics were certainly pushing boundaries, but Sharona (for example) was 17. She's fine w/ all of it and is doing great selling real estate in LA.

Catchy tune regardless.

He died around 10 years ago from the big C, only in his 50s

It didn’t help that The Knack’s follow-up album was titled “But The Little Girls Understand”, which obviously was a nod to The Doors.

But this isn’t their second biggest hit (#11). That didn’t happen until 1991. A babe riding my favorite missile.

“Rocket O Love” (#9).

One of the YouTube suggestions while playing this video is called ‘Rock Camp’. Interesting.

One of my favorites - more energy than the original imo. Such an ironic cover. Doug and that band sure knew how to raise eyebrows.

The Knack - Hard Day's Night live
