Virginia Mazarro (born November 2, 1942), known professionally as Ginny Arnell, is an American retired pop and country music singer and songwriter who recorded in the late 1950s and early 1960s.
Two singles were released by the pair, "Snuggle Up Baby", and "Faithful Our Love" (co-written by Pitney and Mazarro),[2] but neither achieved chart success.
Both she and Pitney then became solo acts, and she released three singles for Decca as Ginny Arnell – "Mister Saxophone" (written by Neil Sedaka and Howard Greenfield),[1] "Carnival", and "Look Who's Talkin'" – but again without success.
It is described by Bruce Eder at Allmusic as "a classic of the [girl group] genre for poignancy....Arnell's singing projected extraordinary depth of feeling, similar to Lesley Gore, and turned the seemingly superficial song into a moving mini-drama.
According to reviewer Jason Ankeny, the album "documents with soap opera accuracy the trials and travails of teenage life, when every romantic slight is the stuff of Shakespearian drama and every blemish a terminal disease: hits like "Dumb Head" and "I Wish I Knew What Dress to Wear" document the kinds of existential crises that can only occur when you're young, hormonal, and too goddamn stupid to know what real problems are about.
