It is no surprise that Shaun Cassidy rose to fame so quickly. His boyish good looks and incredible musical talent meant that he was destined to become a heartthrob.

Cassidy was only 18 when he recorded this famous rendition of the classic rock song, "Da Doo Ron Ron." This was way back in 1977 and the song is still loved by so many.

The song became an instant hit and rose to the top spot in the charts. The teen singer was the brother of the famous David Cassidy, a star of the hit show, "The Partridge Family."

Stereogum reports that the song was a cover of the 1963 hit "Da Doo Ron Ron" by the Crystals, which was produced by Phil Spector. The classic chorus was meant to be a placeholder for lyrics to come later but the producer liked the gibberish so he left it in. Cassidy takes the song and gives it a 70s update with his own spin on it.

It is rare to hear "Da Doo Run Run" now on radio stations. Even though it was considered rock'n'roll at the time of its release in the 1970s, you are now more likely to hear it when scrolling through the oldies stations. Regardless of its status, the song is a true classic that has stood the test of time.
