Neil Sedaka and Howard Greenfield were young song writers in the fifties when they offered some compositions to Connie Francis. Her management felt the songs were to “grown-up sounding” for the emerging teen market. The boys were asked to write something less intelligent, more “stupid.” The result was “Stupid Cupid,” which turned out to be one of Connie’s biggest hits. The 45, released on M-G-M in 1958, is worth no more than $20.00 but the 78rpm version is up to $100.00 today. Both versions are shown here.
