The song is done in the style of the Lubbock sound, made popular by Buddy Holly and the Crickets in the late 1950s; the strumming pattern, tempo and chords (both songs are in the key of A) bear particularly strong resemblance to the Crickets' “Peggy Sue.” In 1969, Roe was presented by the Recording Industry Association of America with a gold record for accumulated sales of over one million copies.[2]
