Artist: Lulu & The Luvvers
Author: Bert Berns
Label: Decca
Year: 1964
Them cut it two weeks before Lulu, but her version came out two months before theirs. Them by then had only a bad reputation for credentials, Lulu had charted already with Shout (see there).
Covers:
Them [released the year after; first testing Them's potential with another track from that session: Baby Please Don't Go (see there)]
Exciters [striking similarity in There They Go, written and produced by Bert Berns, soon their label boss]
France Laurie [as L'Immense nuit]
David Bowie [on Pin-Ups]
Ben E. King's Here Comes The Night from '61 was written by Doc Pomus/Mort Shuman.
