Messin' with the Boys  Messin' with the Boys is the second post-Runaways album by Cherie Currie, released in 1980. For this album, Currie worked with her identical twin sister, Marie Currie. Their band was called "Cherie and Marie Currie". Marie was a guest vocalist on Cherie's first album, so Marie went on tour with Cherie to support her first album, "Beauty's Only Skin Deep". When Marie would join Cherie on stage to sing the encores, the audience would go wild. So Cherie ran with the idea of two blonds are better than one. The idea paid off because "Messin' with the Boys" received more radio play than "Beauty's Only Skin Deep", and their song "Since You Been Gone" made it to 95 on US charts. The single "This Time" and the album Messin' with the Boys made the top 200 on U.S. charts. This makes Messin' with the Boys Cherie Currie's most successful solo album. "I Just Love the Feeling" originally surfaced on the 1974 album, "S.S. Fools" by the group of the same name. Cherie duetted with that group's lead singer, Bobby Kimball, and wrote the additional lyrics in the second verse. "Messin' with the Boys" was originally released by Capitol Records in 1980, but "Messin' with the Boys" was re-released on Renaissance Records in 1997. For the 1997 re-release, the twins recorded seven new bonus tracks. Tracks 11 through 17 are the seven 1997 bonus tracks. One of the bonus tracks was "Cherry Bomb", a song Cherie recorded with the Runaways. When Cherie was in the Runaways, it was regarded as their signature song. In 1988, singer, Tone Norum, covered Cherie and Marie Currie's song "This Time". She named the album after the song she covered. "This Time" was also covered by the U.K. band Smart. When Brad Hamlin asked Marie Currie, "Tell us how "Messin' with the Boys" came about." Marie said "That's a very long story, but I still to this day believe it is one of the best albums we could've made. We had the best musicians, songwriters, and a tremendous amount of support. I look back at recording that album with a smile."
