When You're Sixteen
Sounds like that sort of thing John Lennon would suck all the life out of.

16 is the official age of a girl in rock & roll.

Or Ringo would've done in epic style.

Strings!
On such a slight track.
For heaven's sake.

Basically they couldn't/weren't allowed to end the album on a slow, melancholy track.
So, a rock 'n roll plodder rounds off affairs.

It's not a plodder.
Short and to the point.

It is over.
That was fabby; beautifully written, performed and produced with a surprising debt to the likes of Marc Bolan and Dave Bovvie, as well as the expected 1950s influences. Basically, a record made by people who knew what they were doing.
Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it.

Goalposts moved.
Expectations confounded.
Expectations confounded despite the fact that it was everything I expected in a sense.
Superior product on many levels.
Very nice production, relatively sophisticated compositions that never lost touch with the R&R and doo-wap music it was unashamedly apeing.
In summary, immensly entertaining despite all of my prejudices.
