This song was the original creation of African American Saxophonist, Clyde Dickerson. He wrote the song for my mother and vowed never to marry until she married him. Clyde also known as (Mr. Watergate), first sang this song to my mother when I was a little girl in Olean, NY. about 1958. Clyde died in 2003 and never received credit for the son.

Formed in high school in 1960 in Pennsylvania, their original name was The Val-Aires. This original was written by Jerry Capehart and Glen Campbell who wasn't credited for his part. The Vogues beautiful harmonies are mesmerizing, the orchestral backing just blends to perfection to make a great memory, a fantastic production.. It reached Number 7 on the Billboard Hot 100's. They had other great hits such as Five O'clock World and You're The One. Great reaction Harri. Thanks Harri and Daniel. I knew it was your pick.👏👏 Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦

@coinneachmaclellan3121 Жыл бұрын

Using an orchestra in a rock/R&B song is a fine art. For pop songs it's easily done and can produce a masterpiece such as "So Rare" by Jimmy Dorsey in 1957 or "Chanson d'Amour" by Dot and Artie Todd in 1959. With rock/R&B songs it was often used to make the record more palatable to the mainstream buying public but when used well it could elevate a rock/R&B song into a power ballad such as "Lonely Teardrops" and "She's So Fine" by Jackie Wilson which lost none of their soul but gained power by contrast and dynamic emphasis.

Sorry Daniel, Harri, I much prefer the Glen Campbell version from 1961 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gK6VpZiYyr-wlGg.html I don't think the song is strong enough for the big production on this version. Glen's is more accessible. His voice is better too. Glen recorded another version in 1968 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nLSEh6eArM-rcnU.html which may have inspired The Vogues version

@danielvolk237 6 ай бұрын

As much as I like Glen's version to say he has a better voice is a bit of a reach. Glen's voice has a distinct twang that sounds kind of tinny. The Vogues are in the Vocalists Hall of Fame along with The Association who are also fantastic vocalists. People have their own opinions and I like both versions but Glen's version did not even crack the Top 40 so obviously more people liked the Vogues version which cracked the Top Ten. There is a song I like 3 versions of, "I heard it through the grapevine." I love Marvin Gaye's version, Gladys Knight, and finally CCR's. All great versions that I enjoy. Sorry for carrying on so long. Thanks for you comment. 😊

@flamencoprof Жыл бұрын

I remember this song. I now hear it as pretty creepy. The protagonist begins describing following an oblivious object of his affection who can fulfil HIS needs. Rather than actually trying to gain her attention in an open way, he is in his own self-centred world fantasising that his mental wish for her to notice him will somehow magically come true, just because that is what he wants. He then goes on to thinking, without consulting her, that she needs someone who'll love and GUIDE her. And this is coming from a guy who cannot even manage a normal greeting and interaction. Just no.
