Saturday tune for Easter.
Gene Pitney – Something’s Gotten Hold of My Heart (1968)
This was originally a #5 hit for Gene Pitney in the UK in 1967. When Almond covered the song in 1989, he invited Pitney to sing on it with him, which Pitney was happy to do. That version was a hit #1 in many countries including the UK, but Pitney’s record label refused to release it in America, where Pitney was from. They were afraid that young listeners who were not familiar with Pitney or Almond would think they were a gay couple.

Tämä on aivan ihana kappale ❤ Joskus soitin tämän klassikoissa, mukana myös suomiversio, joka ei sekään ollut huono, Siiri Nordin lauloi sen.
Pitää kuunnella se versio
I love his voice. He’s always been a favourite of mine.
It is very recognizable 🙂
Loistava biisi! Makea ääni kaverilla. Itselle mainittu Nordinin versio on tutuin.
Mun pitää kuulla, se on multa mennyt aivan ohi
He is one of my all time favorites.
Glad I was able share it with you this time
That video on YouTube has 4.4M views in 11 years and zero likes until today thanks to me, so hopefully more people will hit the like button.
oho, I did not notice that.
Tämä on kyllä yksi maailmankaukkeuden upeimpia klassikoita!
Nyt oli iso kehu 😀
