Their 1963 #1 hit, "My Boyfriend's Back", came about when a staff
writer for April Blackwood Music returned to his old high school in New
York, which he had heard was being torn down, for a last look. When he
got there he saw a young teenage girl screaming at a rather
disreputable-looking teenage boy, "My boyfriend's back and you're gonna
be in trouble. You've been spreading lies about me all over school and
when he gets ahold of you, you're gonna be sorry you were ever born!"
He immediately returned to the office, got ahold of two other
songwriters and had the song finished in just a few hours.
