Oh yeah! I've never been big on Al Bowlly but that particular song really got to you during the movie!! I love Roy Orbison stuff. Cryin is one of my favorites but I think upping the tempo on it would just be a crime. It is a sad, lonely song that needs to be done just as he did it. Very solemn and destitute. Some songs are just that way. There is no other way to do them without losing the feel. That's my take anyway.

I adore this Al Bowlly stuff! LOL! It sounds so "chique". It takes me back to another time and place. (Quoting Message by Deep Freeze from Wednesday, December 09, 2009 12:40:56 PM)

Oh MAN, Craig!! I love Bobby Vinton! This is a GREAT song, man. I have been pondering old 60's songs the last few days. Thinking of ways to cover them with a heavier, more rock sound. This one may work as well. Now the hard part, getting the rest of the band on board!! HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!
