#1 hit for Tom Jones that many had to put up with in the mid-'60's.
As time has passed, it's easier to swallow these days.
The Porter Wagoner version was popular too.

Just listened to the Tom Jones song. Yeah, not gonna pretend like I hate it, cause it just doesn't leave enough of an impression to feel strongly about, but it's so divorced from the emotion of the song that I just want to run screaming back to Merle.

Of course a country song that gets me choked up makes me want to throw this on repeat again. Still destroys me. Gets hard to breathe after a while.

Jones has had to do that song so many times for so many years,
but this was the ever-present version:





I hope she pulls thru...

Oh ****, Loretta Lynn had a stroke? I ain't even mad though, cause she had to cancel her tour dates which means she's still touring at 85. Can't keep that bitch down apparently.

I swear to god, ever since I watched the Dexter series finale I've been a leaky sieve of crying bitchness.
