New to me, and pretty good. It's a little too laid back, in the Excello swamp
way, for a song that the women who recorded it tend to belt out so I'll stic
with Offitt as the best version, but I was happy to hear it.

I rate the Offitt original best too. I'd forgotten all about the
Shelton version till I came acoss it whilst updating my 1960 favorites
(all my next batch of April nominations will come from that year)

There are other versions of this song out there (Carol Fran for
instance but I don't care for it)

The Franklin Stewart is polarizing, it has 3 firsts and 3 lasts already.

(Roscoe Shelton) That's not bad, but basically I just don't like the
song. It sounds like it ought to be a rocker but they're doing it in
slow motion.
