That was The Partridge Family's "Doesn't Somebody Want to be Wanted?", followed by Edison Lighthouse's "Love Grows where my Rosemary Goes" as K-Billy's Super Sounds of the 70's weekend just keeps on... truckin'.
Came here from the 1971 WOWO EAN False alert. They were broadcasting this song right before it happened, and I thought "Oh, hey I really like the sound of that" so I looked it up. And here I am.
Read his memoir "Could It Be Forever - My Story". I'm reading it now. So sad. He was a cash cow for Screen Gems and the publicists who directed what he did, what he sang, everything. David made $600 a week while those parasites made millions of dollars off him
Debra K I went to lots of 70s concerts never got to see David. Am I crazy likin Music at 5 Years old. I was a Ladies Man in grade School the girls were crazy about my IRISH Freckles on my face. 70s grade school was crazy most of us 8th graders were drinking Beer. Cool a girl looked like Steavie Nicks, from Fleetwood Mac. Sorry its True most IRISH like there Alcohol. Us O'GRADY boys most have been good looking these girls came to our house sometimes right after school. It does suck most people think all IRISH are Drunks. Lots of people think our Freckles are Bug Bites. Us IRISH need to be carefull in the Sun our Skin burns easily. Thats funny were not born with Freckles we get them from the Sun. 1 Brother had so many Freckles on his face he looked like he was in the Sun for 8 hours. Funny Freckles disappear from face but not our body. I said to girlfriends your not afraid of IRISH Freckles. I was lucky girlfriends liked to party like me. I was 1 of those 8th graders drinking beer at 14 years old. I married a RODEO GIRL from NORTH DAKOTA. ND is a state with only Farm Land. I did feel bad taking her 1500 miles away from her Family. My Wife got me to like Country Music. I am Proud of myself being Irish & knowing my limits with Alcohol.
@@jimogrady1131 Well, you’re just lucky to “know” your limits. Predisposition is involved. My Husband along w/his 5 Brothers all drank at that young age you mentioned & they are all dead today.
I remember as a young kid in the mid 70s dad had all the car doors open one warm spring day, cleaning out the car with the radio playing a pop station and this song started playing. When it got to the part with him talking I thought "Hm, good song." I always kepted it tucked in my memory then later found out where it came from and such.

Raymond Malcuit I heard David was so Popular he was selling out Stadium concerts at 18 years old. To bad I went to lots 70s concerts but never saw David.
HELL NO!! He hated this song, he did as he was told; he had no choice. If you read his memoir, you'd know he hated & didn't want to record these songs. Sure he was successful, but his contract gave him income of $600 per week and no say in anything he did, while Screen Gems and the whole Marketing Machine made millions of dollars off him. He died as a result of liver & multiple organ failure due to alcoholism. Such a sad story 😞
This song was played in the episode where Danny thought he was adopted: "A Partridge by Any Other Name." I know David hated this song but I think it's one of their best!!
Growing up in the sixties and seventies with the music as a base too accept and too overcome my emotions : Country to fall, rock and roll to start the climb, and heavy metal to to begin the next climb. Still working on loss😢 Memories the beauty of life. I'm thinking of coming back. Blessed once, maybe I'm lucky. 🤔Young soul😊😊😂
I love love love this song and everything the genious sings good song Love this song! So great to be a teen in the 70's 😘😘😘😘😘😘😍😍😍😍😍😍😋😋😋😋😋😋💘💘💘💘💘💘🎸🎤🎵🔥🦊🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰💯💯💯💯💯💯💋💋💋💋💋💋🎶🎼🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩💜💚💗💖💓💙😇😔😂🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Kim Carothers Partridge Family was my first music as a kid, I feel like a dummy had no Idea how Popular the OSMOND Family was, didn't even know Donny & Marie had there own TV Show. My sister was obsessed with those Long Hair Rock Stars. I did feel bad for her she was born with that IRISH Red Hair. Parents were crazy giving birth to 10 IRISH kids. Us IRISH are Different born with Red Hair & Freckels & most think all IRISH are DRUNKS. Don't wanna Brag in grade school the girls told me my Freckels were cute on my face. I didn't see it that way my face looked like I was Baking in the sun for 8 hours. Some of my siblings got crazy with the Alcohol. 58 & still listen to songs from those 70s concerts. Everybody Loves an IRISH GIRL REDHEAD OR NOT. AN IRISH GIRL IS A GUYS BEST DRINKING BUDDY. YOU DONT SCARE ME I WAS RAISED BY AN IRISH MOTHER. It is True Redheads get bullied at school. RIP DAVID CASSIDY
He hated that they made him talk, "you know I'm no different that anybody else . .... Stupid They used him and all the concerts, appearances, etc ruined him .
The Xfiles Season 4E13 · Never Again plus I forgot it was used in Reservoir Dogs maybe thats why my spine double tingled during episode 13. Great song even if spooky!
@@rods6405 It wasn't used in Reservoir Dogs, it was mentioned by K-Billy along with the next track he had cued up, Love Grows Where My Rosemary Goes by Edison Lighthouse 🙂
I'm reading David Cassidy's memoir / autobiography "Could It Be Forever?" He hated this song, didn't want to record it, thought the spoken bit in the middle was the kiss of death ... he was only paid $600 per week while Screen Gems, Chuck Lauder (teen mag publisher & producer of hot David Cassidy merchandise) made millions. I was never a fan in the 70s myself, but my older sister was smitten like billions of girls. David had to do as he was told, and feed the entourage of publicists & parasites or face ruin. He had no say, no power at all. No wonder he became an alcoholic, sadly he died aged 67 after multiple organ failure due to his alcoholism. He was a nice guy, taken advantage of by the Marketing Machine. His story is so sad.
I was at Convalescent Hospital for Children when this record came out in 1971.I heard the record on radio station WBBF, which also had the echo. At that time, I had a very big crush on Judy Sherwood, who was a teacher at the school building, and when I saw her, I would get all beserk and wound up, and I would also run through the halls of the school building, like a bolt of greased lightning, screaming, yelliing, hollering, acting very crazy and very bizarre, screaming such crazy things like Flicking With The Camera All Night Long, Hey, Hey With The Monkees, Superfast By Matchbox, I Want A Hamburger With Fiddle Strings On Top, Cottage Cheese, The Teletronix Call Microphones Who Scream Out Orders In A Very Loud, Angry, Harsh, Metal Voice, etc, etc, etc.
You are listening to wowo The Partridge Family in doesn't somebody want to be wanted but first let's interrupt our broadcasting to bring you this nuclear message
@@jimogrady1131 Cyrus is not talented unless a person thinks she is. Money isn’t the object as a true musician continues performing until they no longer can but it’s back to, is she a true musician.
Remembering David Cassidy born on April 12, 1950. He was an American actor, singer, songwriter, and guitarist. He was best known for his role as Keith Partridge, the son of Shirley Partridge (played by his stepmother, Shirley Jones), in the 1970s musical-sitcom The Partridge Family. This role catapulted Cassidy to teen idol status as a superstar pop singer of the 1970s. - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Cassidy
Diana Rick My grade school was all Nun teachers, a Catholic school. So much for Catholics being Catholics most of us 8th graders were drinking beer. My High School was bad 2 I had to take 3 City Buses to get there, 6am - 5pm long days.
Wow. Just reading David's autobiography where he says how much he HATES this song. Fought the studio hard not to make it... especially the speaking part...but got bullied into it. He said he'll never EVER listen to it, and he resented he having to sing it even after it was a hit. He never made a penny from recording not as he was under contract to do so. 😢😢
The spoken part is cheesy, but the melody is great and the chorus is catchy. The PF premiered the year I was born so I was obviously too young for the phenomenon, but listening to songs like this I can see why it was a big hit. 👍
My song of choice when I'm about to accidentally play the wrong tape before testing Emergency Broadcast System equipment and send all of northern Indiana into panic for about half an hour. (if you know, you know)
Lol. I'm reading David Cassidy book and he describes how much he detested this song. Especially the talking part. I can see why he disliked it so much.
WOW !! I Was Just Reading Cassidy HATED This Song And Refused to Sing it Until THEY Made him And After That HE Begged Them Not To Released it, BUT I Wonder Why HE Didnt Like it Because The Song Was A Hit...
You're listening to K-Billy's Super Sounds of the 70s. And if you are the 12th caller, you'll win tickets to the monster truck extravaganza being held at the carson city fairgrounds where you'll see Dan "Big Daddy" BoDean's truck The Bohemoth. Right here on K-Billy's Super sounds of the 70s.
i only came here because this song is on an episode of the X-files and i wanted to hear the complete song without dialogue covering it up it sounds very nice i didn't even know it is from the Partridge Family. ; )
I go downtown and roam around but every street I walk I find another dead end I'm on my own but I'm so all alone, I need somebody so I won't have to pretend I know that someone's just waiting somewhere I look around for her but she's just not there, oh! CHORUS: Doesn't somebody want to be wanted like me? Where are you? Doesn't somebody want to wanted like me - just like me I'm runnin' free but I don't want to be, I couldn't take another day like yesterday I'm dead on my feet from walkin' the street, I need somebody to help me find my way I've gotta get out of this town, before I do I'll take a last look around, though CHORUS BREAK: SPOKEN: "You know, I'm no different than anybody else. I start each day and end each night. It gets really lonely when you're by yourself. And where is love? And who is love? I gotta know."
David didn’t want to do the “speaking part” on this song. According to his biography it became a big deal. And for no good reason. They could have left it out. It’s David’s singing voice I always “cherished.”
notnilc just that the PF songs really weren't his style to begin with and the talking part to him was horrible, but he was under contract so made to do it..at least that's the story..
@@annaacierno9195 DC preferred harder stuff, Cream, Rolling Stones and Jimi Hendrix.. I get that, I'm with him on that.. But this music from Partridge family had that pop-folk '60s sound, like Lovin' Spoonful, The Turtles, the Fortunes (Rainy Day Feeling) and so many others.. I'll take this over rap or 'hip hop' any day..
I'm reading David Cassidy's aitobiography. He almost quit the show over the speaking part in this song. They owned him & he had no say. When he heard the song he "finally flipped out. I didn't like the song and I didn't like the vary speed vocals. I hated the idea that they wanted me to talk rather than sing in the middle of it. The talking-over-the-music routine was old when Elvis did it on 'Are You Lonesome Tonight'. I said 'this is crass commercialism. It's hype. It's jive. It isn't me". Wes Farrel who owned all rights to the Partridge Family music & David Cassidy would use a trick "of altering the tape speed to make my voice sound higher than it really was". David hated yhe song and still can't listen to it at the time of writing his autobiography. The industry was making millions off his name, image, voice, likeness c selling everything from fan club memberships to lunch boxes to bead necklaces, gum etc and ge never earned a cent off it. The money lined the pockets of others who had purchased his identity. "Considering all the publicity I was getting, I'm sure a lot of people assumed I was making a bundle. But in the fall of 1970 as a star of a popular TV show, I was receiving only the $600 a week I'd originally negotiated, out of which, of course my agent took 10%, my manager took 15%, and so on. That was it. I received mo advances or royalties for making the records." The industry took full advantage of David Cassidy. I can't imagine not owning your own name, likeness or voice 😳 There should be laws that allow actors & singers to sue for owed money when they were scammed.
Everyone else: * Reservoir Dogs * Me, standing in the corner: they don't know about the time this was interrupted because NORAD screwed up their weekly test and made people think the US was under attack for 15 minutes.
So THIS is the song David Cassidy hated. :-0 But what I DON'T understand is... since David was under contract, WHY did they have to talk him into doing this song, rather than just saying "Do it"?
LadyLakeMusic Im a PISCES born to like Music, Went to lots of 70s concerts but never saw David. Those 70s concerts were crazy because very little Security. Im saying that cause I was only 5'6" Tall, afraid of getting in fights. I was lucky having Girlfriends being that small. I think it was cause Girls like IRISH Men. In grade school the girls told me I was cute with my IRISH Freckles on my Face.
K billys super sound of the 70s 😜
Next up is Edison Lighthouse's "Love Grows Where My Rosemary Goes"

DC refused to do the soliloquy. He hated it. But he was contractually obligated. So he had no choice, and he got thru it. And it’s pure GOLD!

I walked in on my brother dancing with a broom to this damn song....about 20 years ago...and i laughed my ass off!!!
Some say they are corny, but the songs make me happy.
I wanted Shirley Jones as my mother ❤
I wanted Shirley Jones, too. Um, not as my Mother, though...
Shirley Jones was super hot back then.
Bless him he was such a rare talent .l miss him so much .
Read his memoir "Could It Be Forever - My Story".

So sad. He was a cash cow for Screen Gems and the publicists who directed what he did, what he sang, everything.

Wow, this brings back fond memories. Believe it or not, this was the first 45 I ever bought, when I was 10 years old.
I love the talking part, I think it really gives the song that certain really unique something.

I go downtown and roam around but every street I walk I find another
dead end
I'm on my own but I'm so all alone, I need somebody so I won't have to
pretend
I know that someone's just waiting somewhere
I look around for her but she's just not there, oh!
CHORUS:
Doesn't somebody want to be wanted like me?
Where are you?
Doesn't somebody want to wanted like me - just like me
I'm runnin' free but I don't want to be, I couldn't take another day
like yesterday
I'm dead on my feet from walkin' the street, I need somebody to help me find my way
I've gotta get out of this town, before I do I'll take a last look
around, though
CHORUS
BREAK:
SPOKEN:
"You know, I'm no different than anybody else.
I start each day and end each night.
It gets really lonely when you're by yourself.
And where is love?
And who is love?
I gotta know."
RIP David Cassidy.
This song kinda reminds me of Sly and the Family Stone's "Stand!"
Jamming in 2024! God I’m a loser!
K Billy super sounds of the 70s
I misspelled this every week
David Cassidy poster, on the reverse side of a Hi-C juice can label.
Definitely K-Billy had a good musical taste
David didn’t want to do the “speaking part” on this song. According to his biography it became a big deal. And for no good reason. They could have left it out. It’s David’s singing voice I always “cherished.”
I think this is a song David hated and didn't want to do even though I like his voice I don't blame him
why?
notnilc He hated that he had to talk and thought that was the kiss of death..
is this the part at 1:45?
does he say why he hates it?
notnilc just that the PF songs really weren't his style to begin with and the talking part to him was horrible, but he was under contract so made to do it..at least that's the story..
@@annaacierno9195 DC preferred harder stuff, Cream, Rolling Stones and Jimi Hendrix.. I get that, I'm with him on that.. But this music from Partridge family had that pop-folk '60s sound, like Lovin' Spoonful, The Turtles, the Fortunes (Rainy Day Feeling) and so many others.. I'll take this over rap or 'hip hop' any day..
I know David really sang but who were the other people singing with him?
Not 100% sure,but Shirley Jones may have contributed on the backing vocals.The Wrecking Crew played the instruments.
I'm reading David Cassidy's aitobiography. He almost quit the show over the speaking part in this song. They owned him & he had no say. When he heard the song he "finally flipped out. I didn't like the song and I didn't like the vary speed vocals. I hated the idea that they wanted me to talk rather than sing in the middle of it. The talking-over-the-music routine was old when Elvis did it on 'Are You Lonesome Tonight'. I said 'this is crass commercialism. It's hype. It's jive. It isn't me". Wes Farrel who owned all rights to the Partridge Family music & David Cassidy would use a trick "of altering the tape speed to make my voice sound higher than it really was". David hated yhe song and still can't listen to it at the time of writing his autobiography. The industry was making millions off his name, image, voice, likeness c selling everything from fan club memberships to lunch boxes to bead necklaces, gum etc and ge never earned a cent off it. The money lined the pockets of others who had purchased his identity. "Considering all the publicity I was getting, I'm sure a lot of people assumed I was making a bundle. But in the fall of 1970 as a star of a popular TV show, I was receiving only the $600 a week I'd originally negotiated, out of which, of course my agent took 10%, my manager took 15%, and so on. That was it. I received mo advances or royalties for making the records." The industry took full advantage of David Cassidy. I can't imagine not owning your own name, likeness or voice 😳 There should be laws that allow actors & singers to sue for owed money when they were scammed.
Everyone else: * Reservoir Dogs *
Me, standing in the corner: they don't know about the time this was interrupted because NORAD screwed up their weekly test and made people think the US was under attack for 15 minutes.
heard on Xfiles? tattoo episode?
😂❤ the only reason I know of this song existing is because of Reservoir Dogs
original chris (jeremy gelbwaks)
"Never Again"
David hated it? I loved it!!!!! (Although the talking part is shameful)
David said he hated having to talk during the song..stupid
@@philmontejano5971 Go fuck yourself ignorant chicano!!
X filés!
Same
On wowo radio
#InmyFEELINGS
So THIS is the song David Cassidy hated. :-0 But what I DON'T understand is... since David was under contract, WHY did they have to talk him into doing this song, rather than just saying "Do it"?
They couldn’t stop him if he decided to sing like Barney Rubble.
There's always some hand holding involved with performers.
I didn’t realize Mark Hamill was in this show lol
Singing along in 2021!! Anybody???
LadyLakeMusic Im a PISCES born to like Music, Went to lots of 70s concerts but never saw David. Those 70s concerts were crazy because very little Security. Im saying that cause I was only 5'6" Tall, afraid of getting in fights. I was lucky having Girlfriends being that small. I think it was cause Girls like IRISH Men. In grade school the girls told me I was cute with my IRISH Freckles on my Face.
