It's hard to believe this song had laid dormant until the 1960s, and then became a big smash hit.

@ARIZJOE It wasn't quite dormant, as a lot of people recorded it over the years (Sinatra for one). It's odd to think that it was to have its real heyday fifteen years after Dino sang this, though!

Wow, different decade, different style, this is the first I heard of this older version.

Thanks so much. JD

Long time Dean Martin fan and I never knew he sang this song prior to 1964 !

It was Ken Lane who suggested to Dean and producer Jimmy Bowen that Everybody Loves Somebody be included as the last song on the 'Dream With Dean' album. Bowen was impressed with the song and saw potential as a pop single and the rest is history as they say.

As several have stated here I did not know that Dean had recorded this song before 1964. What a find. I just attempted a cover version of this great old Dean Martin song myself. Anyone interested stop by my channel and check it out sometime.

Dean recorded this for the "Dream With Dean" album a couple of months before he recorded the HIT version.

I have been a Dean Martin Fan for 40 years. I never knew he sang this in 1948! I always heard that this song was a last minute addition to the "Dream with Dean" album and written by Deans pianist, by Ken Lane. Didn't realize Mr. Lane wrote it that early on. Thanks for posting.
