Musical Mondays—Crimson and Clover

I tell you, this internal soundtrack just keeps running. It seems like I notice it most on Monday mornings. Maybe my brain is trying to set the tone for the work week before I'm even awake. If that's the case, judging from this song the week may be an exercise in doing the same things over and over.

Whatever the reason, I caught just a snippet of the chorus for Crimson and Clover as my feet hit the floor. I'm not sure if it was the Tommy James and the Shondells version, or the Joan Jett and the Blackhearts version. Maybe it was a blend of both, with the heavy reverb from TJ&S and the rockin' guitars from JJ&B.

Crimson and Clover
Tommy James and the Shondells
Joan Jett and the Blackhearts

Now I don't hardly know her
But I think I could love her
Crimson and clover

Ah
Well if she come walkin' over
Now I been waitin' to show her
Crimson and clover
Over and over

Yeah
My mind's such a sweet thing
I wanna do everything
What a beautiful feeling
Crimson and clover
Over and over

Crimson and clover over and over
Crimson and clover over and over
Crimson and clover over and over
Crimson and clover over and over
