Great band. Saw them at Lulu's in Kitchener in 1991. Nice blokes, too, and Reg is from my native Hampshire. The thing I especially liked is that they played as a four piece band without additional technical effects.
Sadly they were imploring the crowd of zombies to get involved with the song and give them some support. In a way its a tough song to get up and rowdy ones self to. Great song-Great band and RIP Reg. The more I read about him now what a great person he was. Like so many as you age you lose touch with so many things from your youth. I was sad when I looked back and saw he had passed from that dreadful thieving disease that took my wife just 2 years ago.
I first heard this great song in September 1975. I was a senior at Steinmetz High School in Chicago. I loved this song ever since that day! This group should have been Knighted by the Queen, but Reg Presley is playing in front of the King of Kings!

Most beautiful love song in rock history.
It is hard to lose someone who brought so many happy feelings into the world. with their music>

does anyone know the exact intruments played in this song is it just the guitar and drum
Bob Simon thanks:)
It didn't go higher because it was (a great song) badly performed. Wet Wet Wet proved that.
It's a bit out of tune.
Go back and look at the original video versions from 1967 and let me know what you think after you’ve watched and listened to pure magic.
This song earned Reg Millions of pounds in Royalties in 1994 from wet wet wet version of this song
Take away the Beatles and the Stones in there's The Troggs!!
Miss you Reg, RIP. Your version leaves The Wets standing
Reg Rest in Peace

Wonderful!one of the sweetest songs ever!
Classic! RIP Reg...

Fine, but it's missing the violins that gave the original recording its magic.
The finsl vocalisation was stolen on REM version.
You need to go back and look at the original video versions from 1967.
