  • "Há Uma Espécie De Silêncio" embora tb gravado por The Carpters, Herman's Hermits e outros, entre estes está o autor desta canção...Boa audição!

  • good good good different but good

  • listen pepole there are more music like:

  • I actually like the beat to this verson better than Herman's. But Herman's is still great in an easy "pop hit" kind of way. Wow one of those times I say "to be back listening to radio in those days with songs like this filling the airwaves mustve been cool.

  • This pales in comparison to the Herman's Hermits' version. The Hermits' version is smoother, much more graceful...with the instrumental flourishes much more pronounced.

  • ok, the version of herman's hermits is better but they also have a very nice song entitled "winchester cathedral."

  • Way better than The Carpenters' version but Hermits' version is a win only by a landslide.

  • This song was also covered by Percy Faith's Orchestra on his Today's Themes for Young Lovers, which featured an all female chorus providing the vocals.

  • i like your selection of music'

    

  • i like your slection of music'

  • A favorited song in 1966................"just the two of us and nobody else in sight......closer now and you will see what I mean.......the only sound you'll hear in your ears........."I love you"........".

  • Geoff Stephens wrote and record Winchester Cathedral with session men. He tried to get The Bonzo Dog Band to tour the single as the New Vaudeville Band as they already had the type of stage act he wanted. They refused except for Bob Kerr, who modeled their stage after The Bonzos. See their then stage act in The Beatles' "Magical Mystery Tour". The song "Death Cab For Cutie"

  • "There's a Kind of Hush" is a popular song written by Les Reed and Geoff Stephens. The song was originally written for and recorded by The New Vaudeville Band on the album, Winchester Cathedral, in 1966. - Wikipedia.

    If memory serves Geoff Stephens, who wrote Winchester Cathedral as well, and insigated the project, never actually played on any of the records or live.

  • Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band - Hello Mabel from Do Not Adjust Your Set

    See it now if curious, the company that owns this show is real attentive about getting clips deleted.

  • The Hermans Hermits version is better.

  • Hushhhhhhhhhhhh...just the two of us and nobody else in sight.......hmm......Very nice version. I love this song. Wonderful.

  • I love this song.

  • Johnny Mathis does a beautiful more mature version of this on his ISN'T IT ROMANTIC album

  • There's ....a... version of this song done by a group other than Herman's Hermits? Finally...a song by New Vaudeville Band other than Winchester Cathedral!

  • Yes and The Carpenters also did it

  • I think this is the first time i have seen them being serious, they were bonkers but a load of fun.

  • I like Englebert Humperdinks version better. His voice does it for me

  • The Lennon Sister's version is "interesting",as well, I was 2 years old when this song came out.

  • Wow there was a version BEFORE Hermits Hermits? Never knew that. All I knew were the versions by HH in 1967, and a renditon by the Carpenters done some ten years later.

  • Nothing like the original.

  • this is the original recording - with one of the guys who wrote the song actually performing with this group - I am not vouching for how good it is since that's consumer preference

  • I meant, "nothing like the original", meaning this one. I always knew the Hermit's Hermits version, but good to hear the original...much better than "Winchester Cathedral".

  • Comment removed

  • Errrrr..............Carole King wrote this song.

  • No she didn't. But she did write the theme song You Are The Best from the film I'll Do Anything. Why did you write that? Think next time.

    Sometimes we laugh, sometimes we cry

    Sometimes we hurt inside and don't understand why

    We're only human, we make mistakes

    Sometimes it seems like only other people get the breaks

    Hey

    You're the best, don't you worry

  • Oh I'm sorry, I was thinking of "I'm Into Something Good", by Herman's Hermits. For some reason, I always get those two mixed up. That's what happens when you hit 50.!!!

  • i do the same thing. the other day it was a comment i wrote about the Isley Brothers and put a song in comment belonging to the Chambers Brothers. my memory bank is in a down hill slide. don't feel alone! Drohegda

  • Nice version !!!,.ktf.

  • Way cool to hear this song sung originally by this group, I always thought Herman's Hermits were the original recorders of this classic, btw I was stationed in England when I first heard this gem. Thanks for sharing.

  • There's a lot of good one's on this album and this is one of them. I'll have to get some of my LP up soon.

    I had a request from miodbil for "Goodbye, Diana" by them. I've never heard it before. Would you happen to have it?

  • I'm sorry bURRkEEF I didn't notice your question until somebody posted on here today and I re-read all previous posts - I posted this track for you today!

    If you want any others from this LP just let me know?

  • Not a problem. We all have lives away from this thing. I'll go check it out now.

  • Yes please my original album has gone with my youth and loved all the cuts

  • @bURRkEEF

    Please do I have long since lost my album which was played endlessly. Thanks.

  • nice one buddy

  • Andy that was great hearing the original artists who sang this as I always thought Herman's Hermits sang it first. I really like this version being it's the first time I've ever heard it before, thanks for posting this nice gem of a record up mate 5***** keep these rarities coming Andy as it's great to hear records you don't ever hear anywhere else not even the radio plays this version ie the original one done first cheers m8!!!

    Peace

    Dave

  • Dave The same here thanks for sharing.

    Peace my friend.
