Street-corner harmonies and a "bom bom" that wraps around you like a hug. Doo-wop is the first teenage love of the 1950s — sweet, innocent, and timeless.

Sample excerpt

I saw you by the drugstore in your Sunday dress, and every word I knew just up and quit on me. So I stood there like a fool with my hands in my coat and let the streetlight do the talking for a while.

Bom bom, oh darling, bom bom, will you be mine? I'll wait right on this corner till the end of time. The fellas got the harmony, I got the plea, so say yes to the corner, and say yes to me.

Workshop noteInglés obligado. El "bom bom" va escrito: en el doo-wop las sílabas sin sentido son parte de la letra. Amor de esquina, inocencia de años 50, y el coro que reserva espacio a las cuatro voces.
