Great song originally , though few realise it's a Beatles song from Sgt Pepper.
Its been a no.1 hit by 3 other artists which clouded its heritage somewhat.

Much to my shame, there was a version from Fame Academy that I quite liked
And I don't mean the Sam & Mark version.

'few realise'? really?
I'd say fewer remember the shitty cover

Most people think it was by Joe Cocker.
His 1969 version IS considered the best though.

I'm sure they don't.
And Cocker's version is also shit.

Davros, he only knows 100 people
and they are all either his age, or younger and female.

So in his strange world he is correct, most people think it's by cocker.

Well from what I've seen on reality TV most people credit the song to Cocker and perform his arrangement.
Wet Wet Wet also did this, credit to Sam and Mark for performing the Beatles arrangement.

I like it...

Joe Cocker's voice
is the musical equivalent of Cyril Smith straining to do a really big shit in a service station off the M1 after he's just eaten a 12 egg omlette.

This easily qualifies
for the most staggering display of youthful naivety since the Empowered Womens Pole Dancing Club opened up in Manchester.

I shall click this post
For being both true and funny. One day we shall look back upon it as a paragon of virtues lost to us.

You're friends with Wet Wet Wet?

I need some red wine
45 minutes of work left then I'm cycling the 11 miles home then getting some.

Relevance? None but I felt like letting you know
