"Get Over You" came out in 1979, a John O'Neill song from start to finish: he wrote both the tune and the words, and Roger Bechirian produced and engineered it. It's the Undertones doing what they did best, a short, sharp blast of teenage heartache with the guitars buzzing, the hooks piled high, and not a second wasted, the kind of record that's over before you've caught your breath and has you flipping it straight back to the start.
