Review by JONEBOY, October, 2024
The original version by The Strangeloves hit the AM dial back in 1965, and was resurrected on the UK charts by one-hit wonder Bow Wow Wow in ‘82. 🎼 “I Want Candy” 🎼 with that indelible Bo Didley beat, comes right at ya’ with “I know a girl who's soft and sweet She's so fine, she can't be beat Got everything that I desire Sets the summer sun on fire [Chorus] I want Candy 🍭 I want Candy 🍭 Please proceed to the tasty bits ~ (Sho’ beats Willie and the Hand Jive)
