Our favorite girl-power anthem 𝒀𝒐𝒖 𝑫𝒐𝒏’𝒕 𝑶𝒘𝒏 𝑴𝒆 is taking the world by storm ✨ Released in 1963, Lesley Gore’s song is her first to stray away from the style of music she was used to writing about “concerned boys,” as told by @NPR. In an interview on @whyy’s Fresh Air in 1991, Gore recalled when “You Don’t Own Me” first came to her attention. “At the time, I know I chose it because I know I liked the strength in the lyric,” she told host Terry Gross. “But, for me, it was not a song about being a woman. It was about being a person, and what was involved with that. Of course, it got picked up as an anthem for women, which makes me very proud.” #LesleyGore #YouDontOwnMe #TrendingMusic
