The Teen Queens
• Eddie My Love – A song of longing. This was a hit simultaneously for The Fontane Sisters, The Chordettes, and The Teen Queens, and it was the Queens’ only hit. That was in the winter of 1956.
• So All Alone – A song of longing. Sound quite a bit like Eddie My Love.
• Rock Everybody – A rewrite of Rag Mop. Get up and dance.
• Baby Mine – No relation to Oh Baby Mine by The Four Knights. A song about honesty in a relationship.
• Let’s Kiss – A song about conflict and resolution, the refrain being “let’s kiss and make up.” . The tune is similar to Let The Good Times Roll by Shirley & Lee.
• My Heart’s Desire – A song about, well, desire.
• Billy Boy – A song about a conflicted relationship. Our cleaning lady had a son named Billy.
• Just Goofed – A song about the imperfection of the human condition.
• Teen Age Idol – Not the Ricky Nelson song. A song about love as a form of idealization.
• Zig Zag – A song about unfaithfulness.
• Riding – A song about being in a relationship that’s doomed to fail…
• I Ain’t Gonna Tell – A song about a clandestine relationship.
