“Jessie’s Girl” is a song written and performed by Australian singer Rick Springfield. It was released on the album Working Class Dog, which was released in February 1981. The song is about unrequited love and centers on a young man in love with his best friend’s girlfriend.

Upon its release in the United States in 1981, “Jessie’s Girl” was slow to break out. It debuted on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart on 28 March but took 19 weeks to hit No. 1 reaching that position on 1 August, one of the slowest climbs to No. 1 at that time.   Source: Rick Springfield
