Mary Weiss, Lead Singer of the Shangri-Las, Dies at 75

“I had enough pain in me at the time to pull off anything and get into it and sound believable,” Weiss later recalled in 2001. “You can hear it on the performances. It was very easy for me. The recording studio was the place where you could really release what you were feeling without everybody looking at you.”

This good girl put herself between me and the things that go bump in the night in the second living room.

Those things ended up just being the wind, but I’m not going to fault the bestest girl for doing her job protecting me from perceived danger.

One day, my dad said, "find someone new"
I had to tell my Elon, "we're through"
He stood there and asked me why, but all I could do was cry
I'm sorry I hurt you,
the leader of the pack.
