Or the Alex Chilton version... and speaking of Chilton, I like his version
of "B-A-B-Y."
If you want top veer off of Power Pop:
Baby Its You (Shirelles or Beatles)
Baby Love (Supremes)
Having My Baby (Paul Anka?)
Children, Children (Wings)
Papa's Got a Brand New Bag (James B)
Ooh Child (I'm still partial to the Five Stairsteps)
Be My Baby (essential)
