It's neat to hear the songwriter sing her own song!!!!!!!!!!
-
Very nice. Like the harmonies.
-
Ahh, so much talent.
-
A similar but clearly different version is also posted on youtube. That's the one on Hurried Life. This appears to be later and a bit more similar to the Associations version.

Was she singing in the chorus on the Association's version?
-
easily one of the greatest top 20 songs of the 1960's

Harrison of The Beatles. His percentage for any of his songs was less than 1%. I wouldn't want that deal; even if it meant getting a song out there.

This may have been a result of her not knowing that she could have started her own publishing company back then. Now-a-days if a publisher only wants to pay you a percentage of your half of the publishing, then they are trying to rip you off. Publishing should always be a 50-50 deal. I would imagine she mad gobs of money from her part of the radio royalties; which no publisher can touch. If there was ever anyone who could complain about a bad publishing deal, it would be George...

This almost sounds like Carole King. I never knew, until recently, that there was a version before The Association's.

Awesome demo! I wish the Association would have kept the song in the same key as this demo!
Thank you for the information!

this is the same version that came out on her album. if you live in the los angeles area you should keep an eye out for her. she occasionally plays around town and is worth seeing.
