After the Spector-produced and Weil and Mann-written You've Lost That Loving Feeling, and after producing the Weil and Mann-written (You're my) Soul and Inspiration, Stand By was Bill Medley's attempt to do the whole thing himself: write, produce, sing w/o any help from Hatfield. It's the same (force 9 gale, melodramatic) song and performance as YLTLF and SAI *again* (possibly Medley was self-consciously completing a 'broken man' trilogy/triptych), only this time the leavee's lament is from an even more pathetic perspective: not a current-leavee but a past-leavee who's stuck in the past: 'I'm not her man, I'm just her standby/...So I'll pretend her love is mine'. Interestingly, Medley swallows many of his "her"s so that the key line ends up sounding like, 'I'm not *a* man, I'm just her standby' which is more self-lacerating and somewhat less pitiful. Anyhow, the song/record is pretty terrific; an album track that crushes most nominal hit singles like Godzilla. But it isn't well known, and hasn't been on youtube up till now, so I hereby fill that gap. The song's pathetic perspective reminded me of Mad Men's Pete Campbell (brilliantly played by Vincent Kartheiser) esp. in the wonderful Season 5 episode, Signal 30, written by the late, great Frank Pierson and splendidly directed by John Slattery. In the ep. Pete flirts with a high school senior (Amanda Bauer) in Drivers' Ed. and gets punched out by Lane. Signal 30 is set in 1966, the year when the album Stand By appeared on was released. --------------------------------------------------- There she goes Walking with him Wearing the smile she wore When she used to be mine But I know that she'll Come to my side The minute he Tells her goodbye But my heart won't let Me forget That I'm just her standby For when he's gone And even though I know It's wrong I can pretend That her love is mine I can pretend she is there All the time But it breaks my heart To know that I'm Not her man I'm just her standby I know I'm a fool But I don't care My heart grows so cold when she's gone But so warm when she's there I'd rather be a fool And share her love Than to be a man Who's not involved at all [???] So I will pretend That her love is mine I can pretend she is there All the time But it breaks my heart To know that I'm Not her man I'm just her standby.
