Subject: Song title/Artist?
Since everyone here is very good with identifying songs, here's one that's been bugging me for years.
Its a male vocal, with female backup singers doing the chorus. It was either late 70's or early 80's and may have been a local(in Boston)band.
The male's lyrics are this creepy guy using every skanky pick-up line known to try to get a one night stand. In one verse he is so crude he acually gets slapped by the girl.
The chorus (sung by the girls) goes like this:
"Woo Oh boy, I got better things to do. I got plans and they don't include you Tonight... Tonight... Toniiight..."
Then the guy comes back in and says his name:
" Uh-Huh...Eugene"
I had it on tape years ago, but the dj never identified it while I was listening. Anybody besides me ever hear it????

Real big song on my old hometown station, JB-105 in Providence, RI! "Eugene" by Crazy Joe & The Variable Speed Band. I think it was only a regional hit because it did not chart as a national hit. I still have the 45, but you may be able to find it on www.musicfile.com or www.gemm.com.

Thanks, Dave! I remember it being played here in Boston on WBCN 104 or WAAF Worcester/Boston. It's good to know I didn't imagine the whole thing.
