Search - Ben E. King :: Stand By Me / Spanish Harlem

Absolutely amazing, the greatest song ever recorded.

"This song is the greatest song ever to be written and recorded. The words say so much about when you are in trouble and you don`t know what to do there will always be somebody there to Stand by you. There are so many different versions all of which are superb in their own way. You only have to listen to it once to know that it is a song that will be remembered for a long time. The words say so much. Every time I hear this song it just puts my mind at rest from any troubles I happen to be thinking about at that time. Next time that you hear this song just close your eyes and listen to the words, the backing vocals, the tune, there are so many strong points about the song, you just have to listen to it over and over again."

NOT THE ORIGINAL!!!!!

"THERE'S A BIG DIFFERENCE IN BEN E. KING'S SOUND AS RECORDED IN THE 1960'S AND THIS REMAKE. VERY DISAPPOINTING!!!"
