Just looked at an article about their tour as the Zombies .... I guess all is fair in rock & roll, until someone gets sued for copyright/trademark infringement, haha?

Shifting gears...more music from childhood. Cheating song. Yep, not joking. One of the many songs I know from childhood. (There's a story there). There are TONS of covers on this. I will spare you.

Please Help Me I'm Falling


Original so far as I know. This is the artist I remember:

Hank Locklin - Please Help Me, I'm Falling (1962)

Well familiar with Webb Pierce. Don't recall his version of this:

Please Help Me, I'm Falling Everly Brothers (1963)

Please Help Me I'm Falling (In Love With You) Loretta, Dolly and Miss Tammy Wynette(1993)

This version is just too beautiful to pass up on:

Apparent Parody. I have NO idea why he's referencing Hank Cochran. But whatever.

All I can say is that the lyrics to this are sublime.

I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry by Hank Williams

Hear that lonesome whippoorwill?
He sounds too blue to fly.
The midnight train is whining low:
I'm so lonesome I could cry.
I've never seen a night so long,
When time goes crawling by.
The moon just went behind a cloud,
To hide its face and cry.
Did you ever see a Robin weep,
When leaves begin to die?
That means he's lost his will to live.
I'm so lonesome I could cry.
The silence of a falling star,
Lights up a purple sky.
And as I wonder where you are,
I'm so lonesome I could cry.
I'm so lonesome I could cry.

[Jersey Girl]

I knew Home Free sang gospel. Now I'm totally in the tank for this group. Just remember if you are listening to any of these, this group is completely acapella>>>>>>>>>the drums you hear aren't drums.
