Her songs were produced by Joe Meek, featuring guitarist Ritchie Blackmore on some tracks. Meek kept her on after her Decca contract expired, but she was never able to break high in the pop charts. She recorded sporadically after Meek's suicide. A 2006 compilation titled "This Little Girl's Gone Rockin'" contains her most notable singles, many of which are now collectors' items.

Found the lyrics under the Honeycombs' version. Interesting subject ("There's someone new, each time you go") for a pop song! Here it is at, as Dean Martin would say:
Something I got to tell you baby,
Something's giving me hell baby,
When I'm near you I'm strong,
But then you're gone and I'm alone,
I'm not alone for very long,
I'm sorry,
sorry I'm not worthy,
There's something I got to tell you baby,
Something's giving me hell baby,
Though I said I would be true,
There's someone new, each time you go,
What makes me do it I don't know,
I'm sorry,
sorry I'm not worthy,
of you,
Instrumental
I'm sorry,
sorry I'm not worthy,
Something I had to tell you baby,
Something giving me hell baby,
Now I've got it off my mind,
You're gonna find my love is real,
Nobody's ever gonna steal,
your baby, your baby, from you,

If you compare this song and production to the expensive and lavish Phil Spector productions of the era, you’ll get something of the genius of the Meek and Glenda partnership. Spector had an entire orchestra in one of the finest recording studios of the sixties, Joe had a few string players lined up on his staircase. Spector had the best microphones of the era and proper vocal booths, Glenda recorded her vocal in his bathroom.

I love this one. An immaculate production. Should have been a massive hit. Sometimes I don't understand the English record-buying audience of the 1960s. Glenda did a great job. Love her output. Thank you, Glenda!

Probably my favourite Joe Meek production. Should have been a massive hit!
Andy Lockett
Superb - how did records of this quality miss out ? Her vocals remind me of Beryl Marsden - another great little known 60s girl singer
David Walsh
Glenda Collins is a brilliant performer she made great music. She deserved to be a mega recording star.

Definitely should have been a huge hit and Glenda Collins should have been a major recording star! Excellent song and singer! That's my two cents anyway. : )

Wonderful song that should have been a monster hit. One of Joe's best. Glenda had a great voice and she should have been up there with Lulu, CIlla, and Sandie. You can just hear this pumping out of the fairground in the carefree 60s.
