I'm loving these old school songs these days, and Bay City Roller's cover of Frankie Valli and the Four Season's 'Bye Bye Baby (Baby Goodbye)' is terrific.
Well, the son's lyrics aren't that impressive poetically and linguistically. And honestly, kind of a shit move too thinking how the persona is, firstly, in two relationships, and secondly, ditching the second one (which I guess is right, but then I feel bad for the 'baby' here) in this swingy tune. If I was the 'baby' in the song, I'd give the guy a big 'fuck you'.

But well, let's just appreciate the swing of the tunes. And I can't not think of the scene in Love Actually when Liam Neeson played this song at his wife's wedding. Ugh.
