Written by Wayne Shanklin, who also wrote "The Big Hurt," "Primrose Lane," "The Dream," and others. How do I know? Simple. When I was a performer, he wrote, produced and arranged three songs for me to record. Wayne, passed away, as did his son J.R. J.R., was also involved in those productions.
He was one of the best performers of all time. I never truly enjoyed his music when I was growing up, but now I am in my early 60's and this is what singing is all about. RIP Frankie. Thanks for all the great music you left behind for us to enjoy
No one could attack a lyric like Frankie Laine. There's fire and brimstone in that brilliant voice and this song is the perfect showcase for it. Magnificent

Sure his voice had faded, but so what? The man was what, 70 at the time? It happens to most singers, he's still got it at the end there.

Older version is better. There's more talking than singing. But this is my favorite song in Mafia 2.
