Beautiful song at 74 I remember this song so well I lost my girl in 1964 which was totally my fault and thought that was was my saddest day ever within a month or so we got back together and are still together we married in 1969 and are still happy after 55yrs of marriage plus 4 lovely children 11 grandchildren and 9 great grandchildren and counting a song like this makes me feel so so happy God bless you all and you find the truth someday soon
@tryton111 So sorry, I obviously missed that! Good work and thanks for posting this. I remember listening to this song from my tube clock radio in 60's.
The artists in this era made this incredible music without the benefit that the singers of today use such as auto tune. The old artists sang, played musical instruments and didn’t rely on all the tricks of the trade we see today, thinking of taylor swift here to name just one.
Hermosa cancion es de mis favoritas Me hubiera encantado escuchar una version de esta cancion Con los beatles pero lastimosamente solo quedara como un sueño :(
Beautifully written song by Del Shannon and performed perfectly with such great harmony by Peter & Gordon. Great song from a bygone era of real authentic vocalists and musicians not with all the fake electronic stuff added in todays phony sound dubbed and overdubbed garbage and lip sync recorded studio garbage they call music. Its a Phony World and a throw away World of today. Fake trashy sound.
Del Shannon DID NOT write this classic song for Peter & Gordon. Del Shannon wrote "I Go to Pieces" for an R&B singer named Lloyd Brown, whom Shannon discovered at a Michigan nightclub. Shannon arranged and produced Brown's recording, but was unable to find a label interested in releasing the track. Shannon attempted to record "I Go to Pieces" in the August 1964 session at Mira Sound Studios NYC, which yielded his single "Do You Wanna Dance" and its B-side "This is All I Have to Give." However Shannon was unable to cut a satisfactory vocal of "I Go to Pieces" before the three hours booked for the session ran out. "I Go to Pieces" went to Peter and Gordon by accident, when they and Del Shannon, along with The Searchers, shared the bill for a tour of Australia in the second half of 1964. At one of the tour's venues, Shannon pitched "I Go to Pieces" to The Searchers. singing it for the group in their dressing room. Peter and Gordon were in the dressing room next door, overheard Shannon singing "I Go to Pieces" to The Searchers-who weren't interested in it-and the duo instantly loved it, especially Gordon Waller who years later said it was his favorite of all the songs that the duo recorded. Peter and Gordon asked Del Shannon to let them record it, and he agreed. Peter and Gordon recorded "I Go to Pieces" at Abbey Road Studios with John Burgess producing and Geoff Love as arranger/conductor. As well as Peter and Gordon playing guitars, the session featured their guitar player, Eddie King, on twelve-string guitar. Released in the UK on 20 November 1964, "I Go to Pieces" became the second consecutive Peter and Gordon single to miss the UK Top 50 but, as with their preceding release, "Nobody I Know," it became a hit in America, where the "British Invasion" craze was at its height. Released in the US in December 1964, "I Go to Pieces" entered the Top Ten of the Billboard Hot 100 on 20 February 1965. Following the success of the Peter and Gordon version of "I Go to Pieces," Del Shannon recorded the song at Bell Sound Studios in New York City in March 1965. Basing his version on the arrangement utilized by Peter and Gordon, Shannon's version of his own composition was effectively one of a number of covers of recent hits which comprised his album '1,661 Seconds with Del Shannon'.
Oh dear, Shirley. Strictly speaking, you are right. But even Del has said on interviews "I wrote that for Peter and Gordon". Del wrote it; they recorded it.
Written by the great Del Shannon. He gave the song to P&G in Sydney in 1964 on a tour and always said later that he regretted doing so. He really did not like their version and quite frankly neither do I.

Let's give credit to the composer of this great song for giving it to Peter and Gordon, Mr. Del Shannon. RIP.
Yes, I credited the brilliant Del Shannon in my introductory notes.

Today's music is fake by comparison. Good comment - thank you, Connie.
these lyrics are so well crafted. they could be in country music.. or blues...
Written, of course, by Del Shannon.
RIP Del

a blue....note
And the carpenters
Del Shannon regretted giving this song to Peter and Gordon. Their version is arguably better than his.
I've heard the same story about Del regretting the gift.
