This song really made me cry,,reminds me of my late mother ,,johnny was one of her fave singers,she used to played all his songs in our cassette tape before..
I like Bowie’s version way, waaaay better. But it’s all subjective, so I’m happy to see so many getting joy from both this and Nina Simone’s versions too!!!
Since Chrissie Hynde recorded this, I put her version, this original and other versions by Nina Simone and David Bowie in my Pretenders playlist. Thanks for the upload!
When I was growing up my parents had an LP of Johnny Mathis Greatest Hits. This was one of the bigger tracks, along with Wild is the Wind, Teachers Pet and Wonderful Wonderful. Have a listen.....think you’ll be pleasantly surprised
