BTW The Isleys Brothers did a SOULFUL version of this. Todd produced "Baby Blue" for Badfinger & "The Locomotion" cover by Grand Funk Railroad (he's singing with them). Also one of the ladies singing back up was Vickie Sue Robinson who about 4 years later had a disco/dance hit "Turn The Beat Around".

He wrote this in high school when his first love stopped talking to him, because her parents forbid them from dating. She stopped taking his calls, and disappeared from his life. One of my all time favorite songs.
