Joanie Sommers - One Boy Posted by: oldiesrnow
Video duration: 123 seconds From the summer of 1960. This was from the musical "Bye Bye Birdie", and was Joanie's first charted record (#54). I was always amused that in the lyrics, she mentions having a boy "to have Coke with" and a few years later she becomes "the Pepsi girl". Ah, the irony.
