      Not only was My Sharona explicitly inspired by a 17yo girl the guitarist was dating, the name of their second album was “…But the Little Girls Understand

      These guys were pretty on the nose about what they liked…

      Only band that was even more on the nose was Oingo Boingo with the song “Little Girls”, though I guess the singer said it was meant to be some kind of sick joke intended to offend.

      Also a random coincidence, but apparently the parody song “My Bologna” was what kickstarted Al Yankovic’s career.

        In general, I would say that was bullshit, but knowing Oingo Boingo, and especially having seen Forbidden Zone, that’s actually possible.
