Today's Something or Other #11

Jenny, Jenny, who can I turn to?

867-5309 is for sale on eBay. For a cool 5 Gs you can have endless fun remembering the '80s (and endless interruptions - the seller claims he get between 8,000 and 10,000 calls a year. Presumably looking for Jenny?).

I just checked and the bidding is up to a positively ludicrous $369,100. I guess that $5,000 isn't going to get you anywhere. At time of writing there had been 112 bids.

If the auction is closed by the time you click on the eBay link, you can still read about it at Buzzfeed.

Altogether now, sing it one time with feeling (you know you want to... and you probably now have it in your head already). Sing loud, sing proud.

Hey...
Jenny, Jenny who can I turn to
You give me something I can hold on to
I know you'll think I'm like the others before
Who saw your name and number on the wall

Jenny I've got your number
I need to make you mine
Jenny don't change your number
8 6 7-5 3 0 9 (8 6 7-5 3 0 9)
8 6 7-5 3 0 9 (8 6 7-5 3 0 9)

Jenny, Jenny you're the girl for me
You don't know me but you make me so happy
I tried to call you before
But I lost my nerve
I tried my imagination
But I was disturbed

Jenny I've got your number
I need to make you mine
Jenny don't change your number
8 6 7-5 3 0 9 (8 6 7-5 3 0 9)
8 6 7-5 3 0 9 (8 6 7-5 3 0 9)

I got it (I got it), I got it
I got your number on the wall
I got it (I got it), I got it
For a good time call

Jenny don't change your number
I need to make you mine
Jenny I've got your number
8 6 7-5 3 0 9 (8 6 7-5 3 0 9)
8 6 7-5 3 0 9 (8 6 7-5 3 0 9)

Hey...
Jenny don't change your number
I need to make you mine
Jenny I call your number
8 6 7-5 3 0 9 (8 6 7-5 3 0 9)
8 6 7-5 3 0 9 (8 6 7-5 3 0 9)

Jenny, Jenny who can I turn to
For the price of a dime
I can always turn to you
8 6 7-5 3 0 9 (8 6 7-5 3 0 9)
8 6 7-5 3 0 9 (8 6 7-5 3 0 9)

[note: I never realized how creepy this song is]
