AN EXCELLENT PLAYING COPY OF THIS EVERLY BROTHERS CLASSIC - WAKE UP LITTLE SUSIE
WAKE UP LITTLE SUSIE http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xbLuWciXFcM (Boudleaux Bryant / Felice Bryant)
The song is best known in a recording by The Everly Brothers, issued by Cadence Records as catalog number 1337. The song reached #1 on the Billboard Pop and Country charts and the Cash Box Best Selling Record charts, despite having been banned from Boston radio stations for lyrics that—at the time—were considered suggestive. It got to #2 on the United Kingdom song charts. The song is ranked #311 on the Rolling Stone magazine's list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. The song is written from the point of view of a high school boy to his girlfriend, Susie. In the song, the two go out on a date to a drive-in movie theater, only to fall asleep during the movie. They do not wake up until 4 o'clock in the morning. They then contemplate the reactions of her parents and their friends. Although banned in such places as Boston, the song does not state that Susie and her boyfriend had sexual relations. Indeed, it strongly implies that they did not: the couple simply fell asleep because they were bored by the film. IN THE UK THE RECORD REACHED NUMBER 2 IN THE CHARTS AND STAYED IN THE CHARTS A TOTAL OF 13 WEEKS - IT WAS THE EVERLY BROTHERS SECOND HIT
