Louis Walsh got his start in talent an agreement with Johnny Logan, whom Walsh met on a bus when he was 20, and, despite legal difficulties with Logan's previous management, Walsh was convinced that Logan could be a big star if he just got the right breaks. Walsh persuaded Logan to enter the 1979 and 1980 National Song Contests. Logan won 1980 heats with a Shay Healy number called "What's Another Year", representing Ireland in the Eurovision Song Contest that year in the Netherlands, which he won.

Genres: Comedy,Why am I crazy for you like that?
Why am I crazy for you like that?
Why am I crazy for you like that?
Crazy for you, crazy for you like that
I gave him half my heart
'Cause I didn't wanna jump in from the start
So I said go on and do your own thing
And I will do my own thing
I suggest we keep it safe
I meant it at the time but things have changed
'Cause now I'm out here screening your calls
Asking who's the girl in your car
See me looking at diamond rings
Staying at your house now every week
I'm trying to be your main squeeze
'Cause I've got what you need
Now I've grown too far from the tree
And I'm not liking this new me
'cause I've been crazy for you, crazy for you, crazy for you lately
Love, love, love, love, love
Look at what you do, do, do, do, do
Man you've got me so uncool
I'm talking so uncool, I'm looking so uncool, I'm acting so uncool
You don't like my attitude
The girl you met was so damn cool
But now when you go do your own thing
I make it feel so damn strange
And I'm always mad about something, something
Always talk about nothing, nothing
I just wanna be the one you need
Never happy when you're far from me
Used to be the girl that brought a smile to your face
and now I'm so selfish I cry just to make you stay
Used to be so cool, love look what you made me do
Now I'm crazy for you, crazy for you, crazy for you lately
Love, love, love, love, love
Look at what you do, do, do, do, do
Man you've got me so uncool
I'm talking so uncool, I'm looking so uncool, I'm acting so uncool
S-o-u-n-c-o-o-l
I've got him mad, mad as hell
S-o-u-n-c-o-o-l
I've got him mad, mad as hell
Every time I think about it I cant help it that he wants to run away from here
I used to be the girl that he needed
Now he's avoiding me it's not a secret
I'm getting on his nerve, on his last nerve
Love, love, love, love, love
Look at what you do, do, do, do, do
Man you've got me so uncool
