Do people remember Only Sixteen (By Sam Cooke originally then Dr. Hook)? Title sounds creepy the girl being only sixteen, but it isn't a creepy song if you pay attention to the lyrics (He was supposed to be sixteen too when he fell in love).

Neil Diamond wrote Sweet Caroline to 11-year-old Caroline Kennedy.
Look at the night and it don't seem so lonely
We filled it up with only two
And when I hurt
Hurting runs off my shoulders
How can I hurt when holding you
One, touching one
Reaching out, touching me, touching you…

Neil Diamond wrote Sweet Caroline to 11-year-old Caroline Kennedy. Look at the night and it don't seem so lonely We filled it up with only two And when I hurt Hurting runs off my shoulders How can I hurt when holding you One, touching one Reaching out, touching me, touching you… From Wiki: "In a 2007 interview, Diamond stated the inspiration for his song was John F. Kennedy's daughter, Caroline, who was eleven years old at the time it was released. [...] On December 21, 2011, in an interview on CBS's The Early Show, Diamond said that a magazine cover photo of Caroline Kennedy as a young child on a horse with her parents created an image in his mind, and the rest of the song came together about five years after seeing the picture. However, in 2014 Diamond said the song was about his then-wife Marcia, but he needed a three-syllable name to fit the melody." I wonder if anyone ever bought that bridge.

Yes, that would be the 2007 interview referenced in the Wiki quote.

All songs are ok, if you don`t like a song don`t listen to it and stop whining about it. Surely you meant "don't listen to it again." After all, how is anyone to know whether or not they like it before they read/watch/listen to it? Isn't it always too late to say "if you don't like it, don't listen to it?" Well yes obviously

This is wrong on so many levels. It's also so wrong I find the combination of absurdity and disbelief a little funny
Contrary to wht it says on Youtube, the title is "Rape"
