You have a special aura that attracts and captivates me. Overall, the lyrics of Betcha By Golly Wow are very romantic and emphasize the depth of the narrator’s love for her love interest, and the magical quality that she sees in him. The next lines “If I could, I'd catch a falling star, To shine on you, so I'll know where you are, All the rainbows in your favorite shades” show her willingness to go to great lengths for her love interest, making him feel special and loved. The narrator further goes on to describe her love interest as a “genie in disguise, full of wonder and surprise” which again emphasizes the magical quality that she sees in him. She never thought fairy tales come true but when she is near this person, they seem to come alive. The first two lines of the song, “There's a spark of magic in your eyes, Candyland appears each time you smile,” describe how the narrator feels that the love interest she is describing feels supernatural to her. ![]() Friends since junior high school, Herb and Airrion have managed to keep their institution of 70's music alive.The lyrics of Patti And The Lovelites's song, Betcha By Golly Wow, describe the overwhelming feeling of being in love with someone who feels magical and like a fairy tale.

Hit veteran producer Tom Bell was contacted and was hired to produce the group's first album. After the success of "You're A Big Girl Now", Avco wanted to naturally follow up with an album release. Rumor has it, Bill received over $10,000.00 from Avco of which the group never saw a dime. He decided to contact Avco Records and made a deal. Bill was interested it promoting the record national but didn't have the resources. It was soon picked up in the tri-state area and before long, it became a number 1 hit in Philadelphia and a few other cities. The sessions cost Bill Perry a little over $500.00 to produce and was released locally. This song was written by the group guitarist at the time, Robert "Doc" Douglas and Road Manager, Marty Bryant. Their first song "You're a Big Girl Now" was recorded at Virtue Recording Studio, a local studio in Philadelphia. After working locally for a number of years, the group was approached by Bill Perry who asked if they would be interested in recording. ![]() When members from each group were drafted or went on to further their education, the remaining members under the guidance of their English teacher Beverly Hamilton joined forces and changed the name to "The Stylistics".
