I heard this fabulous tune on 'Sounds of the Sixties' just last Saturday..., and it grabbed me...it really is something...it made number 1 in the UK August 1961, was banned by the BBC for being a 'death song' ....it was Joe Meek's first number 1 as well....what an incredible sounding eerie song it is.....and the video!...those crazed fangirls look like they're going to rip him apart!

Bit of an Oldie for a Sunday! Always remember this record being played in our household when I was a young whipper snapper :) always liked it but ive never actually seen the video until now. Oh, what a crooner he was! :) quite a haunting little number
