Biografía:
The Castaways fue una banda americana, oriunda de Minnesota y es un claro exponente de nuestra amada musica de garage.
Con algunos cambios de formación la banda sigue tocando en nuestros días.
En 1965, el tema "Liar, liar" escrito por el lider de la banda James Donna, alcanza milagrosamente el número 12 en los charts.
Se trata de una canción muy simple, que carece de un estribillo pegadizo. Aún así queda dando vueltas en nuestras cabezas por la utilización de falsetto en el coro, aporte del guitarrista Robert Folschow.

Still another one-hit wonder: Minneapolis punkers the Castaways took this
rant to #12 in October, 1965. Dave Marsh: 'Twenty years later, Prince
came out of the same town with two-finger organ riffs that surpassed
this one, but it took that long to beat 'em.' -- AWR

If you keep on tellin' me those lies

Be free of you, but I'll still be sad
In spite of your cheatin', still love you so
I'll be unhappy if I let you go
