Can someone explain me why such a great singer had such a short career chart-wise? They say it is a British invasion but if there was a place for Cilla Black or Sandie Shaw surely there must have been a niche for Helen Shapiro.
@Pujardoff1 You say her voice is "harsh and gutteral"-total rubbish she has a pitch perfect smooth deep voice and the millions who bought her records agree with me.................
the one and only fabulous helen shapiro:the greatest song by the greatest singer of all time.dear helen i know of someone more precious than all the gold in the world and that someone is you. God bless you forever, love, seratt007
The best of them all NO ONE from the USA or UK has ever matched her listen to the power of the voice some one suggested Aretha Franklin was better NO WAY Helen had ten times the voice
I think this is to avoid the embarrasing bit when the recorded track fades out and poor old Helen is left miming to an ever diminishing sound! Or maybe I'm just an old cynic.......
She was and is wonderful but she never really got the good songs (except for Look Who It Is).

One funny thing....you hear the pre-recorded track going until the last three seconds, then it goes totally live, band and everything.
