I don't think I bought this when it came out. It wasn't a big hit in 1965 and I think I bought it in the 1966 winter sale. I was pleasantly surprised by the B-side, which was actually better than "All I really want to do" which seemed to meander a bit. Cher's version was even ballsier. But I discovered Gene Clark with "I'll feel a whole lot better". The intro sounds a bit TOO much like "Needles & pins" by The Searchers, but it's a great song. There would be many cover versions ahead by Tom Petty and The Flamin' Groovies amongst others, but the original is unsurpassed.
