This Beatlesesque number was SHOWCASED in the DC5's John Boorman-directed movie, "Catch Us If You Can" (U.S. title: "Having A Wild Weekend") - but it is shrouded in mystery.

Written by Dave Clark and lead guitarist, Lenny Davidson - despite it being the best number in the movie, the best ballad they ever did AND one of the top five tracks in their whole canon - it was never RELEASED.

Even the soundtrack album from the film does not have it (which must have infuriated MANY fans).

WHY??? Anyone?

  • it took me almost forever to find this thanks to you and youtube, i love this song!

  • @ladyphilutube My pleasure. It is rather beautiful, isn't it? Shame it wasn't released as a single at the time - it could have been a Sixties classic.

  • This *was* released. I don't know if it was released in England in the '60s, but it can be found on Side Two of their American album 'Coast To Coast,' released in late 1964. It's also on the great 2-CD set 'History Of The Dave Clark Five' that came out in the 1990s.

  • @RSG2006 I'll take your word for it - but I could never find it in ANY DC5 discography.

  • Such a shame this was never released. It's so beautiful.

  • Remember this lovely song from Dave Clark Five film my younger brother took me to see as a teenager. Never forgotten it. Thanks for posting.

  • @sofine1980 Indeed. Lennon/McCartney were superb, Boyce/Hart were good, Nesmith was superb, Clark/Smith/Davidson were superb - the decade was truly opulent for quality rock music.

  • I'll put this song up there w/ any Lennon/McCartney comp.

  • This lovely song "When" is so nostalgic for me.  I always enjoyed the Dave Clark Five and think the film that featured this song is one of the most underrated of the 1960s. Barbara and Dave were so young...but then so was I when I first saw "Having a Wild Weekend." Thank you, dwaynepipe59.

  • My sister and I haven't listened to much of the Dave Clark Five, but the little we've heard, we like a lot. I'll have to show her this song :)
