I first heard Herb Alberts version when i was growing up and i think that will always be my favorite though this will be a close second if not a tie for first.
Never heard this before; makes me feel embarrassed to have thought the Beatles version was good. this is in another league. Amazing voice, and what a beautiful girl. Sort of a better looking, better sounding Barbra Streisand.
This was always my favourite song of the Beatles. Never before heard this wonderful version of Esther. What an angel!!! What a voice!!! In my entire life never heard another song which touches my soul as intense and deep as this one. Be cautious, it may make you weep from happyness! I'm in love with her.... Will try to get a CD.
I would definately recommend buying Esther Ofarim- In New York, first. Every single song is like this one, AMAZING. Also check out the one coming out June 5th, Esther Ofarim In London, it's also very, very good.
A Taste of Honey wasn't a Beatles song. It was written by Bobby Scott (whose orchestra features on this version) and Ric Marlow for the 1960 Broadway version of the play. The version used in the film was recorded by Lenny Welch and won a Grammy. I love Esther's version too though. Probably the best of the lot.

Thank you for the nice post. Love this song. She is hot, reminds me of the women on the moon base in the TV show UFO.

Beautiful version, though a bit slower & more meditative than the more robust pace of the T- Brass

These were the lyrics I learned 1 in guitar training. I guess it's a feminine version

why dies the Beatles and Hollies version have different lyrics?

@aitch3 It was actually an instrumental song, so I guess the Beatles wrote their own songtext for it and so did the Hollies...

I think both the Beatles and Hollies heard the Lenny Welch version.
