For me , there are not enough words to express how good that record is .

A top ten favourite record for many people , and deservedly so .

IMHO , If there is such a thing as the " perfect " NS record , " YDSAW " is it .

If the record is not for you Philip , so be it .

Phillip, the day you use the title as your daily mantra the world will be a more peaceful place.

For now, just replace the word Say with Type and you'll make so very many of us on SS happy :hatsoff2:

Agreed Jim. The only thing that could have bettered this would be the possibility of Steve Perryman doing a version.

you may not like the record webby, but how can you compare the fabulous yvonne baker with shirley feckin' bassey? I happen to think YB is one of the most underrated vocalists ever. YDSAW for me is an era defining record and no other version for me comes close. I feel the same way about the Yum-Yums. I'm glad I was there, that's all...

Did it get played at The Torch,mate....

No , it surfaced after HS had to close its' doors .

" YDSAW " was given its' first outing at WC by Dustbin Stanley , after it being given to him by Simon Saucepan .

Excellent northern. It's a top 500 tune that I don't get overly tired of. Probably because of that sinister sounding backing track....

i think with these 'overpayed' classics you have to remember the first time you heard it...just cos you may be bored with a tune it doesnt mean its crap....if ya didnt like it then...fair enuff thats your opinion...its a good job we didnt all like the same stuff...

i love it but dont get that excited when i hear it out anymore,saying that if anyones got an original they wanna sell me for a couple of quid i'll take it off ya hands:D

The first time I heard Yvonne Baker's version was about 3 years or so after I had first heard and fallen in love with the Patti Austin version on COLUMBIA.

I was at a club and distinctly remember shaking my head thinking "WTF!?" when the Yvonne Baker version came on. It sounded like a novelty tune to my ears. I've since then given it many chances and have even danced to it once or twice but it still leaves me stone cold.

I realise that I'm in a huge minority, but I think that the Patti Austin version from 1972 is superb and far preferable. :tumbleweed3:

Of course it is an excellent soul record, it goes without saying, is this thread really about if the poster thinks it leaves him cold or is it just a statement borne out of a desire to get a reaction, because i for one am getting tired of this forum, and i know for a fact very close friends have left this very forum purely because of such inane posts............

Yawn.......

Ps.it should be in the 'LOOK AT YOUR BOX' section.............too

Make your mind up,lads...Aren't we talking about a Soul Record(s) here....Thought that All About The Soul would be the best place to post it....Chat in Freebasing?? Thought that was the forum to go for non-soul related discussion...

Wouldn't be so bad Webby if you'd asked some soul related question about the record, not that you simply didn't like it. The question has simply led to too many off topic posts.
