RIP ELLIE!

There's version with Ellie singing lead on her 'Let it be written, Let it be sung' album from 1967. It's better than this, though basically the same arrangement.

@leigy Ahh, thanks! You're right !

I always loved this song....I was just a little kid when it came out..but, I loved it when it came on my brother's radio...

At this stage from having heard thousands of songs it's not easy to find a song that I've never heard before that is really good but this one is GREAT.

@leigy Ahh right, I just re-read this in Crystal Barbra Alston's book: the Butterflys were Mary Thomas, Paulette, Myrna Girard (an ex-Crystal), and a fourth.

@Kikomel1951 No. The lead singer wasn't a Crystal. It was a woman named Paulette.

[Kikomel1951]

@giano56 ... which Crystal sang lead? Was it Mary Thomas ?

Thanks so much for posting this! Truly one of the greatest songs ever!

It's been going through my head for forty years and alghough I had the entire

song in my brain all this time, I could not for the life of me remember who sang it

and could not find it anywhere. So thanks a million. Truly a gift to be able to hear this again!
