This man has one of if not the best voice range of any male singer I have ever listened to. His songs are timeless and he is sorely missed in the world of music.

@689321546 It's too bad Gene didn't get the airplay here in the states like he did in the United Kingdom. He truly was a great talented singer!

16 DISLIKES!?

Wow.... must be 16 16 year olds who never had a childhood.

I feel terrible for the people that disliked this. For shame...

captivating every time - timeless song sung by a guy who had a ridiculous amount of real talent and stage presence - American Idol & others need to get off the air-they will never hold a candle to stuff like this, or even the great variety shows of the 60s & 70s,for that matter...thank you, zatara2000 and others on youtube for helping me to stay "back in the day" and have easy access to real music !

I was surprised at the Gene Pitney - Rolling Stones connection.

This is from a late '64 edition of Ready Steady Go, a Friday-night pop tv show on Rediffusion TV, the London commercial tv station. Ground-breaking tv, with the audience and cameras vying for space in the studio. It was broadcast live at around 6:30pm from central London (Kingsway studios, long gone) and often had to be altered and cut whilst broadcasting. Absolutely of the time!

Looks like it was shot in the British Show READY STEADY GO. Seem to remember it.

Fantastic !!!!

For the technology that they lacked back then, it makes one appreciate the talent he had. However, he should be very thankful that Cyndi Lauper wasn't around with her rendition of this song because his would have been known as a fair version in comparison.
