  • One of the best examples that the B-side can be better than the A-side.

    Thanks for sharing this song.

  • I agree. You're welcome.

  • The first time I heard this was at your old channel. Fell in love with it then.

  • Glad you are enjoying these songs!

  • First record I ever bought of Roy's with a record voucher on my 15th birthday . I liked Dream Baby but must have played The Actress many times more if only to understand all the lyrics. Have been a Roy fan ever since.

  • Took me awhile to like "Dream Baby" but this side has been a favourite ever since I heard it.

  • Didn't get the air time it deserved......and far better than the A side...in my humble opinion.

  • To my knowledge this IS the same as the 45 version. I used to have it years ago and would have noticed even the slightest difference.

  • @barrygioportmorien1

    PS. I have been told this is not the original version that was on the 45 B side of Dream Baby, which would have been the one I heard first on the jukebox. Does any body out there have a copy of it from the 45.

  • One of my all time favourites by Roy, this song should have been a monster hit for him.

  • Roy tiene grandes canciones siempre lo voy a seguir.

  • wciąż niedoceniany a jakże piękny niepowtarzalny głos!

  • sometime listen to 'The Crowd ' one of his best.......also from 1962 and the flip side was MAMA..ALSO A GREAT 'b' side

  • The Big O makes me go cold the voice is terrific

  • Roy was one of the few singers who didn't record B side quality songs. Some of his best "A sides" may have more of a hook to entice the record buying public, but the vocals and music are of high quality in both Roy's "A" and "B" sides.
