"Bye, Bye, Baby (Baby Goodbye)" is a popular song written by Bob Crewe and Bob Gaudio, a member of The Four Seasons whose version of the song made it to #12 on the U.S. singles charts in 1965.
On the original issue of the single, the title was "Bye Bye Baby"; on The 4 Seasons Entertain You album and later issues of the song, the name was changed to the longer, more familiar name.
The song is about saying goodbye, not because the person is unloved, but rather that another commitment is preventing their relationship.
A cover of the song by the Bay City Rollers sold a million copies and hit #1 on the UK Singles Chart for six weeks from March 1975. |
