I'm listening to classic golden oldies while I'm sitting here working, and I've noticed a trend in hit songs. I'll enumerate those that immediately come to mind:

*You're Sixteen, performed by a 26 year-old Johnny Burnette
*16 Candles, written by 26 or 27 year-old Luther Dixon. This song is apparently singing about obsession with a 16 year-old girl on her birthday, which means that she could've been no older than 15 when the obsession started
*Young Girl, get out of my mind, performed by 26 year old Gary Puckett
*I saw her standing there, by a 23 year old john lennon

looks like alot of songs from the 60's by guys born in the 30's and 40's  quite possibly to a couple that was married before she was 18

15-19 year olds marrying guys in their late 20's-30's was common until relatively reciently

Aqualung by Jethro Tull





Sitting on the park bench ––

eyeing little girls with bad intent.

Snot is running down his nose ––

greasy fingers smearing shabby clothes.

Aqualung

Drying in the cold sun ––

Watching as the frilly panties run.

Aqualung



Never understood why the name "Aqualung" was chosen for the song, but I have to say now that I'm older it's a pretty sick song

You do realise that those songs are targeted towards the teenage audience, in particular back then when only teens listened to rock n roll.
So some 17 YO captain of the football and his girlfriend like that song and listen to it. the fact that the singer is 27 is irrelevant.
Most REAL artists don't get famous until they are 25 and that is when their career begins.
When i was a teen none of the rock acts i liked were teenagers they just made music that appealed to teens.

From the Jerry Lee Lewis Wiki:

"Lewis's turbulent personal life was hidden from the public until a May 1958 British tour where Ray Berry, a news agency reporter at London's Heathrow Airport (the only journalist present), learned about Lewis's third wife, Myra Gale Brown. She was Lewis's first cousin once removed[9][10]  and only 13 years old. (Brown, Lewis, and his management all insisted she was 15). Lewis was nearly 23 years old. The publicity caused an uproar and the tour was cancelled after only three concerts."

Depeche Mode - Little 15;

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SfA2U4V2DZY


Little 15
You help her forget
The world outside
You're not part of it yet
And if you could drive
You could drive her away
To a happier place
To a happier day
That exists in your mind
And in your smile
She could escape there
Just for a while
Little 15

Little 15
Why take the smooth with the rough
When things run smooth
It's already more than enough
She knows your mind
Is not yet in league
With the rest of the world
And it's little intrigues
Do you understand
Do you know what she means
As time goes by
And when you've seen what she's seen
You will
Little 15

Little 15
Why does she have to defend
Her feelings inside
Why pretend
She's not had a life
A life of near misses
Now all that she wants
Is 3 little wishes
She wants to see with your eyes
She wants to smile with your smile
She wants a nice surprise
Every once in a while
Little 15.

"into the Night" by Benny Mardones





She's just sixteen years old

Leave her alone, they say

Separated by fools

Who don't know what love is yet

But I want you to know



If I could fly

I'd pick you up

I'd take you into the night

And show you a love

Like you've never seen, ever seen



It's like having a dream

Where nobody has a heart

It's like having it all

And watching it fall apart

And I would wait till the end

Of time for you

And do it again, it's true

I can't measure my love

There's nothing to compare it to

But I want you to know



If I could fly

I'd pick you up

I'd take you into the night

And show you a love

Oooooh, if I could fly

I'd pick you up

I'd take you into the night

And show you a love

Like you've never seen, ever seen

Yeah, Ooooooh....





someone was planning to kidnap a girl, but desided to write a song about it instead....good choice Benny.

Oh, don't ask why
Oh, don't ask why
For if we don't find
The next little girl

I tell you we must die
I tell you, I tell you
I tell you we must die

IV. Berry's Deviant Sexual Fetishes

There is no disputing that Berry has been an exceptionally successful musician. However, it seems as though Berry's music has never been his "true calling" or driving influence. Instead, Berry seems to be motivated by his one true love in life - watching women take dumps.

In 1990 Berry was sued by several women who alleged that Berry installed a video camera in the ladies' bathrooms at two of his St. Louis restaurants. Berry probably installed the camera so that he could masturbate vigorously while watching video of women going to the bathroom at his restaurant. It's possible that Berry had microphones installed so that he could hear the sounds of women farting after eating the food at his restaurants... One wonders whether Berry would have eventually installed surveillance and microphones in the bathrooms at his local Taco Bell so that he could listen to the sounds of women (and possibly also men) spraying diarrhea after eating greasy tacos...





A class action settlement was eventually reached with 59 women on the complaint. It is estimated that the settlement cost Berry around $1.3 million plus legal fees.

There are rumors that the police raided Berry's house after the allegations of the bathroom videos surfaced. Supposedly the police found some nasty home videos at Berry's residence. One of the videos supposedly shows Berry giving a golden shower to a blonde woman. After soaking her in piss, Berry apparently tells her to open her eyes and mouth, and asks whether his urine is "nice and salty." The woman supposedly tells Berry that she loves him and then asks him for a kiss. Berry's response? He said that he wouldn't kiss her because, "it smells like piss." During the same scene, Berry also reportedly unleashes a long and very loud fart and then says, "You can smell my fart." It has been reported that Berry's fart was as loud as a fog horn on a cruise ship!

Berry showed that he can receive as well as give in the next scene, as the same woman is supposedly shown taking a dump on Berry's face.
