Toni Basil - Little Red Book Lyrics






I just got out my little red book
The minute that you said goodbye
I thumbed right through my little red book
I wasn't gonna sit and cry
And I went from A to Z
I took out every pretty girl in town
They danced with me and as I held them

All I did was talk about you
Hear your name and I'd start to cry
There's just no getting over you... oh, no...

There ain't no girl in my little red book
Who could ever replace your charms
And each girl in my little red book
Knows you're the one I'm thinkin' of
Oh won't you please come back
Without your precious love I can't go on
Where can love be I need you so much

All I did was talk about you
Hear your name and I'd start to cry
There's just no getting over you... oh, no...

Oh won't you please come back
Without your precious love I can't go on
It's haunting me I need you so much

All I did was talk and talk about you
Hear your name and I'd start to cry
There's just no getting over you
All I did was talk and talk about you
Hear your name and I'd start to cry
There's just no getting over you... oh no

  1. F.... O....

    I love the new wave weirdness of this. It makes the whole thing a valuable curio. However taken on its individual merits, tune, video vocal etc it's actually naff as blazes. However I remain a fan. Would have flopped if released as a single

  2. r.... ....

    I wonder if she’s a fan of Love?

  3. P.... w....

    A real pioneer pop artist

  4. M.... D....

    Love 😀

  5. s.... ....

    On the 1966 short film by Bruce Connor called Breakaway, you can hear her natural voice on a Motown style song. You can see her dance to it and she shows her spectacular body in the nude. https://twitter.com/franciscojvill1/status/846467273619656709?lang=en

  6. O.... N....

    I wish they would release Word Of Mouth on CD. I'd buy it in a second!

  7. V.... S....

    Could easily be a DEVO song ... or did one of DEVO write this?

    V.... S....

    Burt Bacharach and Hal David wrote this

    V.... S....

    I think they performed on the song, because they performed on the album its on, "Word Of Mouth".

  8. S.... ....

    Totally did that song justice.

  9. �.... ....

    Amazing Toni !!

  10. S.... P....

    She was in the movie mother jugs and speed

  11. D.... M....

    Song 1/10. Video 3/10. Dancers 8/10. Must try harder.

  12. C.... M....

    People need to respect this AMAZING woman, as the trailblazer She is. I hate that for the longest time I only knew Mickey, and that she did choreography, and not for EVERYTHING she's accomplished. Toni Basil is fantastic and this is the best rendition (next to LOVE) of Little Red Book. The way she sang it, the chord progressions actually make sense... and the choreography is phenomenal.

  13. F.... ....

    WOW, she had a video for nearly Every song on "Word of Mouth" ;o ...Why did MTV only play MICKEY? I owned this record when i was 7 in 1982 and Loved at least 3 other songs on it. lol NOBODY is certainly one of them... SPACE GIRLS <3

    F.... ....

    it was the only one that didn't suck

  14. f.... ....

    Wow this is really bad, but with the sound off it is interesting somewhat. Well at least it may have inspired the cool Katy Perry " Roar" video.

  15. B.... R....

    Please...early MTV days...v
