Guest Phoenix8049 Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 l don't think it's that good.......What is your opinion?? How very dare you Webby. It's one of my all time favorites. It's got everything. Stu.
Little-stevie Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 Webby is back.. Time for bed, i will have to tune in tomorrow for this hot topic.
Sean Hampsey Posted August 23, 2010 Posted August 23, 2010 If you think its good, it's good. If you think its bad, it's bad. That's how it works, Webby. Sean
Guest Matt Male Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 l don't think it's that good.......What is your opinion?? Which version?
Guest Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 l don't think it's that good.......What is your opinion?? i love it
Guest Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 (edited) l don't think it's that good.......What is your opinion?? 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 .

Mrtag Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 it's stood the test of time and is still good today!! sorry Phil
Guest Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 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
grantdyche Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 I remember back in the day people would say that it was going to be the theme tune for the new Bond film, Great record !!
Guest JIM BARRY Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 wonderful atmospheric different classy .. just a few words to describe this tune...it does indeed have everything for the listener and the dancer alike....pretty rare too.
Garethx Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 wonderful atmospheric different classy .. just a few words to describe this tune...it does indeed have everything for the listener and the dancer alike....pretty rare too. Agreed Jim. The only thing that could have bettered this would be the possibility of Steve Perryman doing a version.
Guest JIM BARRY Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 Agreed Jim. The only thing that could have bettered this would be the possibility of Steve Perryman doing a version. no....it was bad enough listening to him singing spurs are on their way to wembley!! were his dulcit tones on nice one cyril too???.
Philb Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 This is my no 1 record of all time and i could listen to this all day. Yvonne baker of course,
Shinehead Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 Classic tune the intro induces goosebumps everytime i hear it , all time classic .
Guest Biz Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 If you think its good, it's good. If you think its bad, it's bad. That's how it works, Webby. Sean In a nutshell Sean
macca Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 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...
Sean Hampsey Posted August 24, 2010 Posted August 24, 2010 But if l think it isn't very good then does that mean l'm correct and everyone else who disagrees with me is wrong? Surely opinions are just opinions and not always facts... You didn't ask for facts. You asked for opinions. Sean
Little-stevie Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 It adds to his post count don't it,ha ha.. Not on pc, can anyone post a refo sound clip for all members to hear if this lady does indeed sound like our miss bassey.. Not heard the tune for a long time at home or out anyplace..A class northern soul track for me..
Guest Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 (edited) 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 . Malc Edited August 25, 2010 by Malc Burton
Guest TONY ROUNCE Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 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. ...There are some who would say the same about our Shirl...
Steve G Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 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 . Malc Excellent northern. It's a top 500 tune that I don't get overly tired of. Probably because of that sinister sounding backing track....
Spacehopper Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 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 dean
Julie Moore Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 (edited) Afternoon Webby Yes a wonderful classic in mvho not heard enough down soufffffffffff for me but do love dancing and singing and whatever to it at the good old venue`s in the north just wish i had a copy of it my son Edited August 25, 2010 by Julie Moore
Sebastian Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 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.

Soulboy69 Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 One of the 'played to death' oldies that still commands me to the dance floor. Don't you just love the drumming on this record, outstanding!
Sean Hampsey Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 Don't take everything so literally.... Sorry Webby, I knew I should have made allowances Sean

Guest Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 (edited) Well l presume that YB was released in the 60's and PA in the 70's then?? YB - " YDSAW " was released in 1967 ( Parkway # 140 ) . PA - " Didn't Say A Word " was releaesed in 1972 ( Columbia # 45785 ) Malc Edited August 25, 2010 by Malc Burton

Chalky Posted August 25, 2010 Posted August 25, 2010 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.
