"All Grown Up" by The Crystals

The Crystals were Phil Spector's other best known girl group of the 60s to take his "wall of sound" to the top of the charts (the other famous girl group he worked with was The Ronettes).

The Crystals hit it big with the Gene Pitney tune, "He's A Rebel". It was #1 for two weeks in 1962. Their other big ones included "Da Doo Run Run (When He Walked Me Home)", which hit #3, and "Then He Kissed Me", which reached #6.

"All Grown Up" is another upbeat number from their catalogue, but by 1964 The Crystals lost their shine. It would be their final chart appearance, barely cracking in at #98.
