Datalounge- My Boyfriend's Back !

Their well coiffed heads are trying to look tough and not succeeding.

I prefer the Judith Light version. As a teenage gay I had this recorded off the tv onto a specially labelled VHS

He never left. Oh wait, I didn’t have one I dumped him.

R2- Not the best. They're kind of mocking the song - looking goofy.

My version is still THE best on this thread.

r1, I think that would more accurately be referred to as the Jill Eikenberry version. I like it, though. What was it from? And thanks for posting it.

The original version is still the best. Thanks, OP. I was a pre-teen when it came out in 1963, and it dawned on precognitive me that not having to deal with women on this basis in my future was going to be a good thing. I always wished the Angels had come up with another hit as good as "My Boyfriend's Back," but it was not to be. And then along came the Shangri-Las, who met and exceeded the Angels' bridge-and-tunnel sass and attitude with "Remember (Walking in the Sand)" and their string of teen-oriented hits.

R6 - it's the end of a made for tv movie called, coincidentally, My Boyfriend's Back.

Jill Eikenberry, Judith Light and Sandy Duncan play members of a girl group who had a hit with it who are reunited for a concert and address the grudges that led to their break up.

October 6 1963. It was still in "the 1950s".

A month and a few weeks before Dallas. By February 1964, we were in a whole new world...

And only 5 years later, that song, those hair styles, those dresses seemed like ancient history.
