From allmusic:
The B-side of the Rolling Stones’ debut single (Chuck Berry’s “Come On”), this early Jagger/Richards original hardly hinted at their future songwriting genius, but “Surprise, Surprise” has a great sense of teenage angst and a nice period charm. An up-tempo rhythm and groove are the high points here and nicely offset the slightly weak but wholly charming melody. The recording also surfaced on a Decca Records compilation album that benefited British boys clubs.
