Song of the Day: 'Beware of Young Girls' by Dory Previn


"Beware of Young Girls" is a scathing ditty written by Dory Previn questioning Mia Farrow's motives for befriending Dory and her husband, renowned conductor Andre Previn, with whom Mia ran off after getting pregnant with Mrs. Previn's husband's twins. That the little girl Mia rescued from eating out of trash cans on the streets of Seoul would later do to her what Mia "did" to Dory was perhaps the ultimate comeuppance.



(For the record, I think the men are the responsible parties here -- but women who have been spurned don't tend to see it that way.)

Wow, she's really sore over losing a serial cheater. Lovely song, though.
