Big Star - September Gurls
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
September gurls do so much
I was your Butch, and you were touched
I loved you, well, never mind
I've been crying all the time
[Chorus]
December boys got it bad
December boys got it bad
[Verse 2]
September gurls, I don't know why
How can I deny what's inside?
Even though I'll keep away
They will love all our days
[Chorus]
December boys got it bad
December boys got it bad
[Bridge]
When I get to bed late at night
That's the time she makes things right
Ooh, when she makes love to me
(Ooh)
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 1]
September gurls do so much
I was your Butch, and you were touched
I loved you, well, nevermind
I've been crying all the time
[Chorus]
December boys got it bad
December boys got it bad
December boys got it bad, ooh
[Guitar Solo]

"September Gurls" in the lyrics is written as "September Girls" in some places, but as far as I know, the original is "September Gurls" as in the title. Anyway, the song was named in tribute to the Beach Boys' song "California Girls", so both are considered correct. It was released by Ardent Records, but due to lack of promotion and Ardent Records' distribution problems, "September Gurls" and their album "Radio City" did not achieve commercial success, but they became a milestone in the history of power pop music.
The Big Star band and their albums were ignored in the 70s, so their albums and singles did not achieve commercial success, but even though it was ignored at the time, "September Gurls" is one of the legendary songs and I think it still is. Big Star was a very successful band and they inspired many other bands.
"September Gurls" is one of the best power pop songs, and still is, even though it was released half a century ago. Although it was not a commercial success and did not chart, "September Gurls" is one of the biggest number one songs. It is a truly artistic work, especially in terms of chime melody and musical structure.
Enjoy the music and stay with Love

Never heard of this song or this band before. It sounds cool though, considering this was released way back in 1974.
Please add me again.

"September Gurls" by Big Star is a classic power pop song that has garnered a significant amount of praise since its release in 1974 on the album Radio City. The song, written by Alex Chilton, captures the essence of youthful longing and romantic nostalgia with its jangly guitars and catchy melody. @yokosuna
the song is really good and meaningful
Thanks for sharing. I never heard this song before called september gurls but I can see how it would be popular, especially with more marketing when it was released! @buzzking
