WHY I LOVE THIS SONG...a one hit wonder...
1.. beautifully descriptive, with many vivid details
2. 'call and response' done masterfully well...production values are ace...
3. the chorus 'ooh way ooh wa come on kitty, tell us about the boy from nyc'...i remember humming this song way back when, like a teenager, when I visited nyc
4. lyrics like "he's really down/and he's no clown' are so funny. "down" was slang way back then??? also, 'and he's cute/in his mohair suit', what is mohair anyway...
5. there only hit ever, always brings a smile to 'm'face...
