I think the staging of this version--Petula Clark weaving her way through the audience--is very effective. It somehow makes the desperate appeal in the song even more powerful and direct. Petula Clark sings the song with a beautiful wistfulness, as opposed to Cilla Black who lets fly with some real bitterness. Both versions are great.

Does anyone have a link to Petula Clark singing "Downtown" in French? I heard it a couple of times years ago, but never found a copy. It was incredible!

Wow. Multilingual and a gifted singer and cute as a button too...I think I'm Jealous!! I SO MISS those days when talent stood on its own and singers didn't take off most of their clothes and act like sleazy burlesque acts like they do now...

Historical note: The young woman smoking was typical and acceptable but the young man with the sunglasses indoors must have been considered antisocial.
