• Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)

  
  On Deaf Ears — Authority: 103
  Sonny Bono wrote at least three killer songs. I prefer “I Got You Babe” and “Needles and Pins” in cover versions, but when it comes to “Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down),” I’ll take the original, by his then-wife Cher. Cher’s melodramaticism is both the reason for her success and the reason she’s ...
