We always have the idea women want strong, rather macho, successful men, and least of all needy - needy is worse than anything else, and that is probably biological. Allright. But look at this song. It sounds sentimental, plaintive, failing, and very, very needy. And it weren't just the Everly's. Del Shannon, Neil Sedaka, lots of male stars sang songs about loneliness, a lousy lovelife, girls leaving them, you name it. And they were stars and also girls adored them! Maybe women also do have a more caring faculty that has gone out of fashion? And yes, I KNOW Don and Phil were rich and good-looking. Still, why was that theme so popular, while needy, unsuccesful men are almost abhorred these days? https://youtu.be/rI0ll5SexV0
