I confess to being a Brenda Lee fan for many years..... I have a CD by her called "The Crying Game" and the notes say:
"Brenda Lee - The Crying Game - A new compilation made up of Brenda's great recordings of classic love songs: The Crying Game, written by Geoff Stephens, a hit originally for Dave Berry; No. 5, August 1964; more recently a successful inclusion in the film of the same name recorded by Boy George, hitting the charts UK and US. Recorded by Brenda, 24th October 1964 and released as a single January 1965 and included on the album, "Top Teen Hits" February, 1965." Had to let this out...... Best regards, Gary Zack >>Please, Vince -- no hard questions! >> >>I associate this song with the movie of the same name, which is about the "war" >>between the Irish and the British. It's not a peace song per se, but just because >>your precious Eminem didn't write it, don't be dissing it. I think my boy (George) >>wrote it. Where the hell are my meds? Why have I got a short little span of >>attention? I hope the Pope and the Dixie Chicks like me . . . >> >> >Ha! Dave Berry wrote the Crying Game (I think, he had the original hit >with it when Boy George was still fetus George) and I think the movie is >about what isn't and what is between Dil's legs and whether it matters. > Obviously you do not see sex where it is!!!!!!!! At best Crying Game >is a piece song - getting a piece of Dil was so central to the movie but >what piece would you get was the question! > >Vince
