According to Homer this song is a pop music footnote…he didn’t say stop.

The song was written about Sharona Alperin, who was dating the leader of the band. She is now a real estate broker in Bel Air, CA.

The track gained some attention in 2005 when it appeared on the playlist of U.S. President George W. Bush’s iPod.

    I love this song but do you have to play it every time I listen to Knack radio? No tea for the last.fm crew until this is corrected. He he, that should bring them around!

    @ScottPierson.....I agree. "Long Cool Woman (In A Black Dress) is one of my all-time faves! But, I like this too!

    Awesome song and tribute to a groupie. I've heard people say this is "the ultimate rock beat". I almost agree... personally I prefer "Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress" by The Hollies and "Barracuda" by Heart.
