For everyone who's curious Doug Fieger, 25 at the time (the singer) fell in love with a girl from a clothing store named Sharona Alperin, 17 at the time, but they were both in relationships at the time. He broke up with his girlfriend and went after Sharona. They were messing around, although she was still in a relationship. They started dating a while after he wrote a few songs for her; including My Sharona, That's What the Little Girls Do and (She's So) Selfish. They were together for 5 years, but broke up when alcoholism took over Doug. They remained friends. Sharona was with Doug during his last week, when he died of cancer. Also, Doug stated he wrote My Sharona from a 14-year-old boy's perspective.

Even though it was released in 79, this song owned and change the 80's forever.

[@petergunn3614]

Yea, I consider it an 80's song too.

[@jhonnytrujillo9271]

Hahahaha me too, my whole life I grew up thinking that this epic and iconic song was released in the 80's, but only in my teens did I realize thanks to VH1 that this song was actually released in 1979, in fact this is the song that It killed disco music on all the charts at the time. 😊 But personally my favorite album from that year is George Harrison's self-titled album. 😎

[@mickguy3202]

CLASSIC... I never get tired of listening to this one!!

Seit Jahrzehnten lebt die Musik aus den guten alten 70er Jahren, ja warum wohl? Weil sie so richtig gut war und das seinen Grund. Toller Rhythmus und es wurde vor allem noch "selbst Musik gespielt" und keine KI oder sonstige elektronischen Spielereien. Egal welche Sänger oder Gruppen es in den 70er gab, man hört sie immer irgendwo im Radio und das jeden Tag.

[@rulojuka]

One of the greatest rock solos of all time being played and 1 - Guitarist gets less than 2 seconds on film 2 - Solo gets cut in half, before that mighty 500 measure sustained note Thanks a lot TV edits. :(

[@renderizer01]

Guitar solo starts and the camera totals in on the bass player. Brilliant. Sure a lot of thought went into those edits.

[@mpw04191965]

You're absolutely right.

[@ajs41]

A million times better than anything in the charts at the moment.

Bought this single when it came out aged 15, still own it and still love it....1979 was a great year for music.

[@Flavum]

Here I am 14 years later ... that guitar solo has always crushed. Sort of reminiscent of Eddie Money's "Two Tickets to Paradise" solo. Technically brilliant, and wonderfully melodic. Rock on.

Kind of reminds me of the cars now thinking back. This was such a huge huge hit when it came out. Still sounds good in 2024.

Me today. Saw this mentioned in a short about beat it, and came to check out this song. Amazing tune and story behind it.

[@kenmcnutt2]

When this song came out, it single-handedly got me back into rock music after a brief disco/top 40 stint. "Get the Knack" was the first album I ever bought.
