" RUNAROUND SUE"
     originally a US # 1 popular hit for the  singer Dion DiMucci during 1961.
 The song was written by Ernie Maresca  and Dion DiMucci.  It was recorded
in 1961 by Dion, backed by vocal group TheDel-Satins. Released on Laurie
Records, it is a song about a man whose ex-girlfriend  had commitment
trouble and "ran around" (hence the name of the song) with other people in
the city.  When I actually wrote the song and brought it into the studio to
record it, well, her name wasn't actually Sue. It was about, you know, some
girl who loved to be worshipped but as soon as you want a commitment and  
express your love for her, she's gone.
