    Oh Mickey, you're so fine
    You're so fine you blow my mind, hey Mickey,
    Hey Mickey

    Oh Mickey, you're so fine
    You're so fine you blow my mind, hey Mickey,
    Hey Mickey!
    You've been around all night and that's a little long
    You think you've got the right but I think you've got it wrong
    Why can't you say goodnight so you can take me home, Mickey
    'Cause when you say you will, it always means you won't
    You're givin' me the chills, baby, please baby don't
    Every night you still leave me all alone, Mickey
    Oh Mickey, what a pity you don't understand
    You take me by the heart when you take me by the hand
    Oh Mickey, you're so pretty, can't you understand
    It's guys like you Mickey
    Oh, what you do Mickey, do Mickey
    Don't break my heart, Mickey
    Hey Mickey!
    Now when you take me by the hooves everyone's gonna know
    Every time you move I let a little more show
    There's somethin' we can use, so don't say no, Mickey
    So come on and give it to me any way you can
    Any way you wanna do it, I'll treat you like a man
    Oh please, baby, please, don't leave me in a jam, Mickey
    Oh Mickey, what a pity you don't understand
    You take me by the heart when you take me by the hand
    Oh Mickey, you're so pretty, can't you understand
    It's guys like you Mickey
    Oh, what you do Mickey, do Mickey
    Don't break my heart, Mickey
    Oh Mickey, you're so fine
    You're so fine you blow my mind, hey Mickey
    Hey Mickey
    Oh Mickey, you're so fine
    You're so fine you blow my mind, hey Mickey
    Hey Mickey
    Oh Mickey, you're so fine
    You're so fine you blow my mind, hey Mickey
    Hey Mickey
    Oh Mickey, you're so fine
    You're so fine you blow my mind, hey Mickey
    Oh Mickey, what a pity you don't understand
    You take me by the heart when you take me by the hand
    Oh Mickey, you're so pretty, can't you understand
    It's guys like you Mickey
    Oh, what you do Mickey, do Mickey
    Don't break my heart, Mickey
    Oh Mickey, what a pity you don't understand
    You take me by the heart when you take me by the hand
    Oh Mickey, you're so pretty, can't you understand
    It's guys like you Mickey
    Oh, what you do Mickey, do Mickey
    Don't break my heart, Mickey
    Oh Mickey, what a pity you don't understand

    In the early 80’s I went to the dentist, he had MTV on in the office! The assistant sent me up with nitrous oxide.
    She looked at me and asked if I needed more.! The video for this song came on, and she turned the nitrous down!

      I can see where your coming from because they are good and have plenty of attitude as well. I like them but I can't go as far as saying as good as Strummer and/or mick Jones. Just go from this video to white riot and in my opinion at least its in another league to be honest. The clash 1st album just catches the mood of 1970s England for me.

    Original Title : Kitty was Penned by Nicky Chinn & Mike Chapman recorded by Racey 1979

    Nice cover, didn't know they played that. Also good to see the lyrics being signed (at least I assume that's what the lady on the left did). I don't really go to concerts, but I don't believe that's happening a lot yet?

    So fine, as usual! Some acts’ covers are loving replicas of the originals. (“10 Female Fronted Bands - ♫ Impressions by TeraBrite” available on UA-cam is a fair example.*) For other covers, bands take an original song and remake it as their own. (The Byrds’ cover of Dylan’s Tambourine Man, for instance.) Somehow - almost as impressive as their own originals - the Regrettes manage to do both at once, and moreover to do so within various genres and periods!! To re-purpose a line from "Back In Your Head", it seems to be partly a matter of being "not unfaithful but I'll stray". Thank you for this 80s-based treat!!
    (P.S. I see that Antonia Christina Basilotta - i.e. Toni Basil - was born in Philadelphia, like me but nearly two years later at what must have been still within the height of the Second World War.)
    *(The ten are very diverse, as if to acknowledge Icon For
    Hire's apt lyric line in Now You Know, "Who gave us the idea that 'Female Fronted' is a genre anyway?")

    Toni Basil cover? Toni Basil covered a song originally sung in 1979 by the band Racey and changed the title from "Kitty" to "Mickey" because Basil was female.

      It's Vi(olet) Mayugba of Destroy Boys, in what (one infers) must have been a carefully planned world-class "filling in" for bass at events around late 2018 between Sage Chavis's departure and Brooke Dickson joining.

    Maybe it's just me, but....both Lydia's and Genessa guitar tones are godawful. And I love the Regrettes.
