(Gene Simmons)

She's got me dizzy
She sees me through til the end
She's got me in her hand
And there's no use in pretending
Christine Sixteen...
She drives me crazy
I want to give her what I got
She's hot every day and night
There is no doubt about it
Christine Sixteen
(I usually don't say things like this to girls your age
But when I saw you coming out of school that day
That day I knew, I knew
I've got to have you, I've got to have you)
She's been around but she's young and clean
I've got to have her, can't live without her
Oh no, Christine Sixteen...
(I don't usually say things like this to girls your age
I don't usually...well, sometimes)

Gin Blossoms

Gin Blossoms is an American rock band formed in 1987 in Tempe, Arizona. They rose to prominence following the 1992 release of their first major label album, New Miserable Experience, and the first single released from that album, “Hey Jealousy”. “Hey Jealousy” became a Top 25 hit and went gold, and New Miserable Experience eventually went quadruple platinum; four other charting singles were released from the album. The band’s follow-up album, Congratulations I’m Sorry (1996), went platinum and the single “As Long as It Matters” was nominated for a Grammy Award. Gin Blossoms broke up in 1997. Since reuniting in 2001, the band has released Major Lodge Victory in 2006, No Chocolate Cake in 2010, and Mixed Reality in 2018.
