  • Chip wrote this and offered it to connie francis but she turned it down, Billie Davis was First UK release but it was recorded by a few people in USA

  • o'skeeter I love you'skeeter

  • hey guys, thank you so much for the informations...

  • I may be wrong but this seems like a rude response. There was only one perfect person in this world and they crucified him. Until you can walk on water you may want to consider being a little less critical of others.

  • Beautiful!

  • Uz Nina Simone niekas taip gerai neatlieka sios nuostabios dainos.

  • NICE!! I missed this fine performer the first time around.... thank goodness for Youtube, and this posting.

  • Tthe original was done by Evie Sands

  • I think the BEST version is the one that I like the best.

  • blah...

  • she is killing a great song

  • agree, Juice Newtons verson is the best. Its on the tip of my tounge who wrote it just watched it on tv, but cant remember.

  • Evie Sands made the original in 1967.

  • Belongs in the County Music Hall of Fame -she is better than many in there

  • @jdmans I agree with you so will you join me in calling the Country Music Association I will give you the number to call tell them why you are calling. 1615 244 2840 I called them last year and spoke to them about it and some others

  • Skeeter Davis is greatness and beauty

  • Written by Chip TAylor and give to his protege - Evie Sands - possibly singer with worst luck - look her up

    This is a nice version

  • Skeeter you beautiful sweet lady, I loved you then, and I'll love you till my end. God Bless You,darlin.

  • ah ok, thanx you so much...

  • is she the original singer of this song???

  • @brodcaster1956 If you would take the time and read the description I wrote, you could have seen this is a cover and the original came from Merrilee Rush. :-P

  • @manbehindthescreen1  no it didn't, people did this song before Merrilee Rush

  • @brodcaster1956 MERRILEE AND THE TURN ABOUTS.MARRILEEN WAS OFFER TO RECORD THE SONG IN 1960 BUT SHE TURNED IT DOWN

  • @brodcaster1956

    Billie Davis I think it's on you tube, but i like Juice newton the best of all the people that perfromed the song, even thought skeeter has a lovely voice.

  • @thekux Billie Davis version is beautiful, love Merrilee's version too, brings back so many memories.I am enjoying this version also!

  • @brodcaster1956 From what I read Chip Taylor wrote the music and lyrics.a group called the turnabouts along with singer Merrilee had recorded it first then Skeeter Davis,also in 1981 Juice Newton

  • @brodcaster1956 No Billie Davis had a hit back 1965+-. I am not sure if she was the first. She may well have been. Juice Newton also covered the song amongst others.

  • Wpw. 1973???  I think this version was copied by Juice Newton!! who got a hit off of it!!

  • Is there anything she can't sing? R.I.P. lovely lady.

  • @17321799 ?? Why the RIP? haven't found anything of her demise?

  • @17321799 OOPPs, my bad, I was thingking of "Juice" not "Skeeter", Agreed, rregards,
