"No One Gets to Me More than You!"

So I’m listening to a reissue of the 4 Seasons’ Working My Way Back to You, and I discover to my surprise that the band recorded the first version of “I Can’t Get Enough of You Baby,” a song which also was a single for & and the Mysterians and Smashmouth. The catchy Linzer/Randell tune contains a memorable refrain: “I love you so much/I wish that there was more of you to touch!” In one of the verses, the singer makes it sound like he’s wishing his loved one were twins, but the second time he brings it up, I naturally can’t help wonderin’ if these Jersey Boys have a whole different thing going here – and I start visualizing Frankie Valli with a big-haired Ginny Sack type . . .
