I've been listening to Gene Pitney since my high school days and I've never heard this song before. Now I can't stop listening to it. Nice song. Rest in peace, Mr Pitney. You have no idea how much you are missed.
This was the first record I EVER played on a Juke box. I was 14, it cost 3d, it was in a cafe in Bridport on our way back home from a family caravan holiday in West Bay. It brings back wonderful memories of happy days. Wow!
Gene Pitney, after Elvis, the most emotive white singer to grab my attention as a 12 yr. old music fan. It wasn't cool to be a Pitney fan in 1964/65, but along with my Beatles and Stones and Pretty Things LPs, I bought all of Gene's because I just loved his distinctive singing style. Will always be a fan and this song is my favourite of his.
Loved his songs growing up in the 60s-I met him while I was working the grave shift at a small mom and pop store back in 1976-he was traveling to do a show in Allentown Pennsylvania and he stopped for some Dristan Sinus Medicine cause he had a bad headache-he purchased the medication-a pack of Juicy Fruit Gum-a Butterscotch TastyKake Krimpet and a Ma's Old Fashioned Can of ice tea-he pulled out a $5 Bill and signed it and gave it to me-Dear God I still treasure that $5-RIP-Gene-Paul was here-04-28-16.
