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.

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
