Sandra--JM sings "True Love Ways" on a 1989 cd called "In the still of the night"----[the title song is not the standard "in the still of the night, but a cover of a 5 Satins song].

A really nice cd--also includes one of my fave songs " Its all in the game" plus "You belong to me" "The end of the world".

Back to the quiz---

THEY CAN'T TAKE THAT AWAY FROM ME--2 great versions---
Frank Sinatra---Robbie Williams--

I prefer the Robbie version.

Hi Sandra

Ole Blue Eyes for me too, in fact I am really shocked how many times Frank has come runner up in this game! :shock:

'My Girl' by The Temptations or Otis Redding.
This is tough for me as I love both, but I'll go for The Temps, just.

Of the recent posts, Bobby Vinton & Danny Williams.

How about 'Crying' anyone?
The Big O' or Don MacLean?
