"Save It for Me" is a song written by Bob Gaudio and Bob Crewe. A song recorded in 1964 by The Four Seasons for their Rag Doll album, it was released as the follow-up record to the album's title song, which had hit the #1 position on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart in July 1964. "Save It for Me" was also a success for the quartet, reaching the #10 position on the Billboard singles chart.[2] It featured arrangement work by Denny Randell, who would later go on to become a songwriter for the group.[3]
Billboard described the song as a "medium tempo ballad, featuring ethereal organ support," calling it a "smasheroo."[4] Cash Box said it has "a wild 'Telstar' instrumentation" and "quite a sound."[5]
