Diamond also used his newly developing skill to write poetry. By writing poems for girls he was attracted to in school, he soon learned it often won their hearts.

Is that why he was on the Bang label?

Interesting live version from a July 2 1977 England concert, is my understanding...


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCU30zdyGyU

En el memorable concierto de Neil en Woburn Abbey, Bedfordshire, Inglaterra,esta grabación de uno de sus clásicos grabado en 1967 para el LP "Just For You", es reinterpretado un 2 de julio de 1977. La letra está aquí abajo, en su idioma original.


Now for the original 1967 record (first time i ever heard this in true stereo)-

Quote a45rpm33 :
My remix of this classic Neil Diamond song. The original mono 45 has a longer fade than any stereo version. Also on some stereo releases there are a few additional vocal pieces not in the 45 or first stereo release.
Here's a mix I created to what I think it should be.

Now the Cliff Richard version, one of several Neil songs he waxed:

From his new album. A middle-eastern re-worked take on his famous song. Awesome arrangement.
