Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Who's sorry now?
Who's sorry now?
Whose heart is achin' for breakin' each vow?
Who's sad and blue, who's cryin' too?
Just like I cried over you
(Ah ah uh uh) right to the end, just like a friend
You had your way, now you must pay
I'm glad that you're sorry now
(Ah ah ah) right to the end, just like a friend
I tried to warn you somehow
You had your way, now you must pay
I'm glad that you're sorry now

Voice of an angel. I was only 8 but my mom bought all her albums and I grew up listening to Connie's beautiful songs echoing through our house. <3

Lucky little one!

I love Ms. Connie's version of Who's Sorry Now. The emotional and subtleness of her singing pulls at your heart strings. She definitely deserves to be in the Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame
@jerryspianobar
The ONLY reason that I can think of is that, somehow, the people at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame might consider her more easy listening than rock & roll?? Shrug.
@larrybrown3910
There is all types of music in the Hall of Fame. The reason she and some other artists from the 50's & 60's like Robby Rydell etc are not in the Hall is due to the incompetence of the selectors.@@veganmusician
@Daniel-ts3uy
Ya got that right.
@revdianestark
Connie's styling of every note, every word, is the ultimate genius of her artistry.
