Night Time - The Strangeloves
3:23
I Want Candy, 1965
Written by Bob Feldman, Jerry Goldstein, and Richard Gottehrer
Here the faux Australian sheep herders deliver a primitive, almost tribal, beat, à la Bo Diddley. The vocals are more chanted than sung, but there's a bubblegum pop melody underneath the energetic garage rock. It's catchy, it's hard-driving, it's not exactly symphonic. But the kids can dance to it. There have been several cover versions, but I haven't heard any of them.
