One of their finest and best known songs is the proto-feminist anthem by Lesley Gore called “You Don’t Own Me”, a #2 hit in December 1963 that was kept from the top of the charts only by the Beatles’ “I Want to Hold Your Hand”. The song was written by David White and John Madara; Quincy Jones was the record producer, and Jones later produced a 2015 remake of “You Don’t Own Me” by Australian artist Grace featuring G-Eazy.
