It was done in 1961 by the Regents (and I think the Regents' version is in American Graffiti). What new lyrics are you referring to about the hostage crisis? The only ones I know of were to the music of "My Sharona", new title being "Ayatollah". ----- Forwarded message # 1: Received: From brl-vgr.arpa.ARPA by BRL-VLD via smtp; 7 Nov 84 11:11 EST Received: from brl-tgr.arpa by BRL-VGR.ARPA id aa12719; 7 Nov 84 10:57 EST Relay-Version: version B 2.10.2 9/18/84; site brl-tgr.ARPA Posting-Version: version B 2.10.2 9/5/84; site sunybcs.UUCP Path: brl-tgr!seismo!rochester!rocksvax!sunybcs!acsgjjp From: Jim Poltrone Newsgroups: net.music Subject: Re: Unintelligible lyrics Message-ID: <804@sunybcs.UUCP> Date: 5 Nov 84 23:58:45 GMT Distribution: net Organization: State University of New York @ Buffalo,NY Lines: 18 Resent-Date: Wed, 7 Nov 84 10:46:49 EST Resent-From: news@BRL-TGR.ARPA Resent-To: info-music-arpa@BRL-VGR.ARPA I still don't know how that Beach Boys song can be called "Barbara Ann". Every time I hear it on the radio or wherever, it always sounds like: "Ba Ba Ba, Ba Ba Ba Ran". I still maintain that the song is really "Baba Ran". And that falsetto is awful! (Ba-ba Ran....) (on a sidenote, there were some new lyrics written in the wake of the hostage situation five years ago -- 'nuff said!) And when I was younger, I thought Buddy Holly was singing about "Peggy Soup" (now I know it's Peggy Sue). Shades of cannibalism here? :-) -- From under the smogberry trees....
