This has been a message to ruin the mood by your neighborhood Exo.
I was born in 1994 and my favourite song was released in 1899. Am I a ghost?

Not sure why the OP uses a foreign language for the definite article (del) but anyway....

The Shannon is the longest river in Ireland, and one of the longest in Europe. It also has the distinction of my being responsible for almost sinking one of Shannon Cruise's pleasure boats around 1988 or so.

I can't remember much from before the age of 8 or around there.

On topic:

Not even sure this is the right thing, but it's the first that comes up when searching Del Shannon on youtube, so... I'm going with it.



50's popular music never really does it for me and I don't think this guy is a very convincing singer either. This track does have some retro atmosphere though, so I could see it being used well in a movie or something.

Runaway was considered ahead of it's time in 1961 with the Musitron organ. He followed up with the similar Hats Off To Larry. After that, he had a few hits and a couple great songs in late 64, early 65 with Keep Searchin' and Stranger In Town. Basically a singles artist though, even by early sixties standards.


And, Exo, how do you know I'm human? MUAHAHAHAHA!

Ah I thought that it was one of Del the Funky Homosapien's side projects, but that man doesn't look funky in the slightest.
