I’ve Been Wrong Before performed by Cilla Black 1965
Recommended by Mister C [profile]

This 1965 cover of a then new songwriter Randy Newman was a moderate hit for Cilla in the UK reaching No.17. It is superbly sung and arranged, indeed Randy Newman has said on numerous occasions that Cilla's version of this is his favourite version of all his songs. Dusty also recorded this in 1965, taking it slightly slower than Cilla, but an excellent version nonetheless.

available on CD - The Abbey Road Sessions 1963-1973 (EMI)

What can you say about this, it was recorded live and was originally recorded by Jo Stafford. This is just fabulous.
