Was it the hushed homosexuality, possible insanity, and death by stoning from the same-titled Tennessee Williams play that inspired Martha Davis to perform this song?
With its vague lyrics, it's hard to tell. But with it's sultry and dark alley sound, I think Williams would have approved either way. True, this hit is destined to grace 80s compilations for eternity, but don't you dare call The Motels one hit wonders! Have you forgotten the equally good Only The Lonely?
But what do you think?
