“Hang On Sloopy” is a 1965 chart topping hit recorded by The McCoys.
I thought we were talking about banging old ladies?
Yea, yea, we’ll get there in a second, but bear with me and agree that you’d be hard pressed to find an American born before 2000 who hasn’t heard the pop culture staple that is also the official rock song of The State of Ohio.
Surprisingly not that one
Thank god I’m here for you, bc the catchy ballad that was inspired buy a renowned jazz musician, Dorothy Sloop (RIP), will forever have its innocence tarnished once you’ve seen the original 1965 music video featuring now 72 year old Liz Brewer.

Whoa, what’s a Liz Brewer?
As far as I can tell, a Liz Brewer is a woman best known for being a rock groupie in the 1960s who parlayed that into being a successful events planner? Good for her. All I know is I’m in fucking love and have watched this video 20+ times today, and we all owe her a thank you for the next time a crotchety old coworker starts telling you how good you have it with that internet pornography and how he used to have to beat off to a box of Wheaties pretending Bruce Jenner was an athletic long haired beauty about to attempt the pole vault.

Imagined as this
not this
So go ahead and tell Bob from accounting that he can fuck right off about beating of to 8mm film cells he stole from his dad’s projector in 1972, bc it’s not like he was in a desert with no water if he had babes like Sloopy bouncing and shaking on TV like a high class Girls Gone Wild infomercial.
(what I’ll be screaming at kids about being my only teenage outlet for masterbation 20 years from now)
Have a nice night, and some sweet dreams of shake it, shake it Sloopy.
“Hey dudes, I know we’re like the fourth band to record this song as a single since it was written 18 months ago. How do we stand out from the pack?”
“Hey, I have an idea! Remember that chick Liz Brewer…”
