Cilla Black - I've Been Wrong Before (Shindig! 1965)

[ifutureman]

Wow, I've never liked Randy Numan but this song is a masterpiece. I never knew he wrote it.

Great song; one of her best performances; when people remember Cilla, they invariably think of Anyone Who Had a Heart or You`re My World, but to my mind, I`ve Been Wrong Before and It`s for You are far better!

I have just heard this for the first time. Mesmerising. Perfectly beautiful. Timeless.

Her rendition is so beautiful and haunting, every time I listen I hear and feel new emotions. Brilliant!

Could not agree more, the emotion in this superb ' forgotten ' song is wonderful, Cilla really excelled herself in this rendition- her finest in my opinion !.

[ivycompton]

So brilliant - and not only because Randy Newman's song is so very fine but also because Cilla beautifully judges the emotions - pulling back, letting go - this is so FELT. Her hand movements, smiles and sadness and longing intermingled - magic!

Would love to get this on DVD or tape.

Brilliant to finally see this in full. An amazing performance of one of her best songs.

The writer Randy Newman said this was the definitive version of his song.

What can you say but fantastic! this is a real gem. Thanks for posting Cilla's best performance.

The best thing Cilla ever did,remember they used this clip on the Rock & Roll Years series in the 80's, it's been haunting me ever since, a fantastically moving song.
