Okay, I'll try this one more time. Who sang and performed the classic "My Little Runaway"?

No, it is NOT Bon Jovi. The song was originally done by Del Shannon. In the 80's, somebody remade that song and it ROCKS. Here's some of the lyrics,"I've been walking in the rain. Tears are falling and I feel the pain. I'm wishing you were here by me, to end this misery. " and the video involved dinosaurs playing instruments. Trust me, Bon Jovi had nothing to do with this song.

Update:

All those guys on the list.No, it's not them either. Are you sure you read the question right? Does anyone remember?

    That song has been remade by many different bands:

    The Small Faces in 1967

    Me First & the Gimme Gimmes

    The Misfits

    Screeching Weasel

    The Traveling Wilburys

    Elvis Presley

    and Bonnie Raitt

    Sounds like you are looking for the Traveling Wilburys' version.

    I KNOW what song you're talking about. How do you know its not one of the people from the lists? Steve Zing from the Misfits did the song in 1986. Are you sure it wasn't him? And he didn't do it under The Misfits name. It was on a solo album of his.
