*Staying in 1966, this song was written by a 16 year old, one who played harpsichord.  While trying to record that part, he was distracted by a girl...one that ultimately inspired the title of the track.  Name the band who recorded the song and extra credit for the song title...
 
*For this great American band's 3rd studio album, they made a conscious effort to break from the traditions established by their first 2, electing to record in England with a legendary folk-rock producer, Joe Boyd in 1985  The result was a bit darker, and rustic psychedelic folk offering filled with some eerie sonic textures.  Name the band...
 
*This 1991 hit was written by the songwriting team of Mike Reid and Allen Shamblin.  They got the idea from a newspaper article about a guy who got drunk and shot up his girlfriend's car.  When the judge sentenced him, what the guy said became the inspiration for the title of the song.  The writers originally had Linda Ronstadt in mind for the song..  That didn't happen.  Name the artist who did make it a hit and extra credit for the name of the track...
