Most people probably think that the generation of the 90s is the
|
|
most insane yet, but I beg to differ. Sure, there are lots of nutjobs
|
|
out there these days, but many people fail to look back in time, if
|
|
they're looking for answers as to why people are so crazy today.
|
|
|
|
Stalking, for example, has become a prominent issue in our day.
|
|
The stalker will do anything to get the attention of his or her prey, to
|
|
such extremes as cutting off a piece of their body (i.e. an ear lobe or
|
|
finger), and sending it to the person they obsess over, believing they'll
|
|
take it as flattery. In most cases, the person who receives the
|
|
dismembered part isn't all that flattered. In fact, they're usually
|
|
traumatized for a good number of weeks, if not months.
|
|
|
|
Take, for example, the female bubble gum singers of the 1960s.
|
|
On the surface they seem playful and harmless, but beneath this shiny
|
|
veneer lies a dark, horrifying truth. A good number of these women were
|
|
most likely totally obsessed over whoever they were writing about. Take
|
|
these lyrics for example, from the song "I Will Follow Him", by Little
|
|
Peggy March:
|
|
|
|
"I will follow him,
|
|
follow him wherever he may go
|
|
There isn't an ocean too
|
|
deep A mountain so high it can keep me away
|
|
|
|
I must follow him, ever since he touched my hand I knew
|
|
That near him I always must be
|
|
And nothing can keep him from me
|
|
He is my destiny"
|
|
|
|
So you picture this girl who's up late at night writing in her
|
|
diary about the dreamy guy she's just met. But check this out:
|
|
|
|
"I love him, I love him, I love him
|
|
And where he goes I'll follow, I'll follow, I'll follow
|
|
He'll always be my true love, my true love, my true love
|
|
>From now until forever, forever, forever"
|
|
|
|
That's the part of the song where she's just about shrieking her
|
|
love for "him", where all these crazy violins are playing, much like the
|
|
famous track in the 1960s thriller "Psycho". This is most likely when
|
|
had slipped into a demented love trance and just began scrawling
|
|
aimlessly all over the page. Plus the song makes her seem like a bionic
|
|
automaton with this one guy as its target, like the Terminator, walking
|
|
slowly but steadily over mountains and through oceans (like Skinner in
|
|
that episode where Bart skips school), just to be near this guy.
|
|
|
|
So, if you're ever caught in the situation where a girl or guy is
|
|
sending you notes or singing messages on your answering machine that
|
|
sound like, "There isn't an ocean too deep/A mountain so high it can
|
|
keep, keep me away/Away from my love", a restraining order will hopefully
|
|
do the trick.
|
|
|
|
Next on the list is "Which Way You Goin', Billy?", by the Poppy
|
|
Family. This is a good example of the persistent, yet not-so-dangerous
|
|
stalker. Even though this song was released in 1970, it still has the
|
|
60s Stalker feel to it.
|
|
|
|
"Which way you goin' Billy?
|
|
Can I go too?
|
|
Which way you goin' Billy?
|
|
Can I go with you?
|
|
|
|
I really love you, Billy
|
|
And all this time
|
|
I thought you loved me, Billy
|
|
And you were mine
|
|
|
|
I'm gonna miss you, Billy
|
|
And though I'm trying
|
|
I'm hurting so bad, Billy
|
|
I can't help crying
|
|
|
|
Whoever it was who wrote these lyrics seems pretty heartbroken,
|
|
yes, but she could hold back on saying "Billy" every second line. I
|
|
think "Billy" got the point the first time he was asked which way he's
|
|
goin'. A crisp, clean smack across the face will usually save you from
|
|
this kind of situation.
|
|
|
|
Next is quite the dangerous stalker. "One Fine Day", performed by
|
|
the Chiffons and written by Carole King, shows that these chicks will go
|
|
to the extreme to get their men.
|
|
|
|
"One fine day, you'll look at me
|
|
And you will know our love was, meant to be
|
|
One fine day, you're gonna want me for your girl
|
|
|
|
The arms I long for, will open wide
|
|
And you'll be proud to have me, right by your side
|
|
One fine day, you're gonna want me for your girl
|
|
|
|
Though I know you're the kind of boy
|
|
Who only wants to run around
|
|
I'll keep waiting, and, someday darling
|
|
You'll come to me when you want to settle down,
|
|
Oh!
|
|
|
|
One fine day, we'll meet once more
|
|
And then you'll want the love you threw away before
|
|
One fine day, you're gonna want me for your girl"
|
|
|
|
Chicks like this don't get the picture the first time they're
|
|
dumped, and resort to taking desperate measures, like brainwashing the
|
|
poor lad into loving her and such. This is the type of girl who leaves
|
|
messages on his answering machine by the hundreds, sends him gifts, sends
|
|
him Valentines all year round, and eventually bumps into him on the
|
|
street with his new girlfriend and beats them both to death with her
|
|
handbag.
|
|
|
|
Where are these singers today? Dead, in jail for violating
|
|
restraining orders, or living happily with her stalkee in the
|
|
dungeon-like basement of her parents' house with the guy chained up to
|
|
the wall, being fed baked beans and water once a day. Don't be fooled,
|
|
though, these weren't the only singers who were of the persistent kind.
|
|
They were everywhere back then, and has resulted in probably a good
|
|
portion of the insanity we see today.
|
|
|
|
It's no wonder Neil Sedaka found that breaking up is hard to do.
