well done littlereddevil. had Al Wilson but couldn't get the song title, and resisted googling it. waited to see if any one else had it. good fun quiz though . well done UBT. :)
-
I think a few people sang it, I remember Johnny Rivers did.
-
Your right a number of people have sung it, including Tom Jones, but Al Wilson is the one that everyone remembers (and IMHO the best version) because of the Northern Soul connection.
-

Bring it on UBT, and thank you. 8)

Sorry I'm a bit late. Only just spotted the quiz. Just wanted to add a little more about "I'll never fall in love again" Not only did Lonnie Donegan sing it, I'm pretty sure he also wrote it.
-
Rik you are right Lonnie Donnegan did indeed (co) write the hit, it was I believe taken/influenced by some traditional tune. It was the additional information I was looking for in the answer, so give yer self an extra hundred points ;) ;D ;D
-
Thank you for your answers. Looking for 2 songs from this list
