@lillysgirl2007 I am 64 years old now. But that song brings back so many old memories. 1964 was a long time ago. And two years later I was in the Army and headed to Vietnam. Seems like that war changed everything......especially for me.
@wareidav Rant welcome, I was doing the same myself watching X-factor singing for which winning seems to consist of singing the loudest in the most affected gospel style.
Thank for this fantastic video Keith......never realize there's a female version of this beautiful song sang by BV. What a voice! She really does justice to it. Love both! Great post!
Hey Macvatu! Cilla Black a great singer? Give it a rest . She ripped off Jackie De Shannon and Dione Warwick. She was a screecher!! The rest of those girls you list, yes, good but Miss Priscila White! Absolute crap!
@Propylnitrite I would just like to say that I agree with your comment regarding Cilla Black. I do not know why she was so popular. I do think however, she was in the right place at the right time!
Here in Britain alone in the 60s we were spoilt for choice with girl-singers ; Maureen Evans, Sandie Shaw, Cilla Black, Marianne Faithful, Kathy Kirby, Susan Maugham, Dusty Springfield, Petula Clarke, Lulu, Julie Rogers, Alma Cogan etc etc, there were so many and good singers too. But slowly the rock bands took a strangle-hold on the music scene and the girls got relegated but not forgotten !!
I love this song. My darling nan always played it for me when I stayed with her. Brings back such happy memories of my childhood and my nan and gramps!
Does anybody know where I could get this version of this song? I like Maureen Evan's version better than any other but can't seem to find it anywhere :(
I see what you mean, going for 70GBP on Amazon! However, Google "Bim Bam Records", and go to site. Type in Maureen Evans - it's the 'LIke I Do' CD you want, 13GBP.
What a stunning voice, this is my favourite version of this song, although i love Bobby Vintons version too, Maureens just has the edge being Welsh like me!!
Just a great song and singer

It always seams to me that all the female singers of the sixties COULD sing!
The female singers today try vocal gymnastics but miss the point of actually carrying a tune.
And where do you get to hear sweet sounding backing singers today?
Rant over.

@SirBasildeBrush I agree, I wish the style would 'change' but then again I'm a fan of gospel too so regardless I'm satisfied.

A very fine cover of the Paris Sister's song, although I think the Paris Sister's version just edges it, a close run thing though.

Close thing, although this one has that lovely change in intonation around 1:57.
