It's not the original. It was originally written for otis redding. But the bee gee's got it somehow.
i am very partial to ray lamotagnes version. And i usually would throw them all down to portray how much better Ray's version of this song is, BUT Eric Burdon really did a good job. Thumbs up from me!
not big on the bee gees, but they certainly wrote one of the greatest songs every written. this version is awesome. i believe, the greatest version of this song, would have been Otis Redding, whom the song was written for. but he died.
I have checked the album jacket, liner and disk...as well as googled until my fingers bled. I can not identify his singing partner on this recording. This song is truly a gift! I wore out my record back in the early 70's and had to purchase a second copy!
@ddebenedictis .. yes.. the same with me.... i also searched and searched my ass off... whoever she was.. she did a fabulous job.... as to my opinion far away better as the version of the bee gees or any other..thks . for trying to find..... if i come along the info i´ll give it to you, cause they sound extremely good together.....have a nice day..
OMG......I have the VINYL of this which I wore out....because i played it so much. I will still play this song ALL THE TIME. He is fabulous! This version is from 1968!!!!
If you like this version check out the Janis Joplin version....only hers competes.
I have never heard a singer sing like Eric on this song : Very powerful, Intense emotion, Passion, ......Eric´s voice had all that on this song !!!!!!!
@timothypnolan Nina Simone's version is okay, but she doesn't get the song. This song is about a whiny young boy feeling the bite of rejection for the first time. Eric Burdon gets it: loud, young, snotty, and hopelessly immature and hopelessly full of longing. A great song.
@hawgrider1200 upon actually researching the issue I found that I was wrong. bee gees did write the song and recorded it in 1967 a little bit more than one year b4 the animals recording. so sorry.
@hawgrider1200 The Bee Gees sure as heck wrote this in 1967.Barry and Robin wrote it and it was released in July 1967. The Animals and Joplin covered it after 1967. Pretty easy to verify online.
Still trying to confirm the who the female vocals are on this. It's not credited on the record.
This song was on the "Love Is" album. It came out the same time as the Beatles "White Album". Both were double albums. And both classics. But of course the Beatles being more popular won all the raves. Burdon always changed his style (War, blues, rock). This was from a great album that had my favorite blues song on it, "As the Years Go Passing By". That's heaven!!!!
It makes no difference if the Bee Gees wrote this song and interpreted it as well, NOBODY BUT NOBODY SINGS THIS SONG WITH THE SOUL AND PASSION THAT THE ERIC SANG IT.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@durgaaa Its a situation that happend to Nietzche when he was almost crazy because a sexual deseas. He huged a horse because the master was hitting it. Erick Buron express in his songs the love to the life and the love all over everything.

NOT the best version of this song but really interesting. The Bee Gees performed this Barry Gibb song the best of course. But good covers are fun esp. Eric Burden.
I like the Animas and grew up with them (and have all their records), but this version doesn't even COMPARE with the Bee Gees version. The Gibb Brothers put MUCH more feeling into it. Sorry......
@CJurasin Yeah! but the Gibbs are dead and Eric isn't! So sorry but Eric put Soooo MUCH More feeling into it and still does... THAT'S your OPINION and opinions are like assholes... and everybody has one... LOL!!
@jfp718 Nope.......two of the three members (Barry and Robin) are still alive and STILL recording. The last time I saw Eric Burden (in Spokane WA) about 10 years ago, he was performing DRUNK and disappointed everyone who came to see him.......including myself. ;-( Sorry, but THEMS the facts.
To Love Somebody" is the second single released by the Bee Gees from their third LP, Bee Gees 1st. As stated many times by Barry Gibb, their manager Robert Stigwood wanted Barry to write a soul song for Otis Redding for him to record.[citation needed] Barry, along with Robin came up with "To Love Somebody", a soulful ballad in the style of Sam & Dave or The Rascals. Redding died in a plane crash before he could record the song.
Of all the pics the person who posted this could've put as the main screen, did you have to put several horses in their natural habitat?! I would've put a photo of E.Burdon during the time this song was released; and I would've put the date The Animals covered it. How could the BG's have written & sung this when Janis Joplin made a cover of this song?BG's?! never understood them! What were they some turncoat traitor rock band that turned disco cuz it was more commercial & popular?!Opportunists!
@Hennaschnecke I agree the BEST version of this song.I'd rather prefer it was 1st written and sung by The Animals rather than rock's enemy, Disco music's BeeGee's.I didn't see a musical instrument in the hands of the BG's like guitar or drums which takes talent to play & to elevate the soul! I'm not even sure if it was 1st written by the BG's-that's like sayin "Please don't Let Me be Misunderstood" 1st written & sung by doofy disco babe/band when we all know it always belongs to The Animals!
Minor point here, but Barry Gibb is a proficient guitarist and Maurice was a decent pianist/organist. (What did Eric Burden play besides microphone?) Also, recall that the BeeGees would've made the Rock n Roll hall based strictly on their pre-disco chart hits. That said, this IS an excellent rendition of a GREAT composition by Barry. Kudos to Eric for all the great songs and memories.
Odd you say that, I never seen Burdon with an instrument in his hands either.... but liek you said, it takes talent to do that. Ohh, btw, All the BG's played instruments, and they played on all of their pre disco albums.
Thank you for posting this video! I was often listening to this Animals version when I was about 30 years old, and I have not heard it since then - it is 35 years ago. Now I recognize all of it and it brings good memories.
Let's not forget who wrote this beautiful love song....the Great BeeGees.....a song written for Otis at the behest of their manager Bob Stigwood......What an incredible group of musicians.....BG's, Otis, Eric B, and the great Robert Stigwood......we music lovers are blessed!!!!!!!!
Wow... So different from Janis' version, which is the first one I heard.
I'm fourteen, and I love both Janis and The Animals equally. I cannot figure out why my generation should be attracted to Miley Cyrus/Jonas Bros. crap when you could listen to awesome music like this?
There's good stuff now, and the internet makes it accessible.
Historically, the music industry has been fixed on the 'big score.' If a sound doesn't promise to score big, they don't want to invest their money in it.
And most kids just want to 'fit in' with the group scene, rather than making their own scene and risking rejection.
Modern stuff is meant to be quick and easy to produce and consume, like a big mac; and is just as forgettable. Older music... older music is more like a steak compared to a big mac: takes more effort to prepare, more effort to eat, but infinitely more rewarding.
Good music is 90% art, 10% commerce. These days, its the other way round.

Habria alguna otra manera de cantarla? ode que hablas?, no comprendo, segun escuche cuenta la leyenda que alguna vez mortales intentaron interpretarla, pero eso creo es cosa del diablo, quedemonos mejor con la unica version que se ha hecho que es con los animales
Es que a lo mejor no has escuchado la versión de los Bee Gees , que es buena , pero no le llega ni a los talones a ésta. Tambien hay otra de Janis Joplin,que está 2-3 . Saludos pagiodrk .

Habria alguna otra manera de cantarla? ode que hablas?, no comprendo, segun escuche cuenta la leyenda que alguna vez mortales intentaron interpretarla, pero eso creo es cosa del diablo, quedemonos mejor con la unica version que se ha hecho que es con los animales

Es que a lo mejor no has escuchado la versión de los Bee Gees , que es buena , pero no le llega ni a los talones a ésta. Tambien hay otra de Janis Joplin,que está 2-3 . Saludos pagiodrk .

Michael Boldin does a good version of this old BeeGee song - but Eric Burdon's version is the best!

itunes has a version by eric burden/animals, but I don't think its this one...its a studio recording, and i think is better than this. i just bought it after hearing this.

IT's a song written by Barry and Robin Gibb and published for the first time by the Bee Gees in 1967.
