Hi Sarah,I had the privilege of seeing Johnny Rivers in concert in California and he is the sweetest and nicest guy in addition to having a great voice ❤❤❤
This was a cover song from Motown's The Four Tops. Check out that version too. Both are great. It was a sign of respect when someone wanted to cover another artist's song❤
Written by Brian Holland, Lamont Dozier, and Eddie Holland. The original version was by The Four Tops. You should check it out. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-joqjBAJx4ZA.html
Johnny Rivers and The Righteous Brothers were the epitome of what they called "Blue Eyed Soul." He had such a beautiful voice. Why they had to put some of the worst choreography ever on the stage with him I'll never understand.
As a preteen I listened to the music and thought are they lip syncing! As I got older it hit home and the lyrics hit me hard! Now all the songs I hear are true! Just sayin' 😊
OK it was the Four Tops and much better, he also had the 3 backing him up, plus backup singers. Hindsight is 20/20, so if he wrote this song, he gets the credit.
This is actually a Cover of the Four Tops song from 1964. Written by "Holland -Dozier-Holland, songwriters who wrote many of the Motown Sound in the 60s for top Stars like The 4 Tops, The Supremes etc etc. 🥰❤️🤣😘🥴🤔
