Title: Cilla Black - Love of the Loved and her other Beatle Songs
Post by: DaveRam on September 15, 2009, 06:47:33 PM
Always liked this record Lennon & McCartney gave to their mate Cilla Black , it only got to # 35 on the UK singles chart in 1963 .
I was listening to it today it's good song , very good for a girl to sing ?  :)

Not sure. I don't think it was Cilla's best effort on a Lennon/McCartney song. I prefer It's For You, which was written especially for her.

^^^^ "It's For You" is beautiful Bobber really suits her voice .
I like "Love of the Loved" it's a strong performance it should have done better on the charts .
I've just bought "Cilla Black The Definitive Collection" which as just been released as a double CD with a DVD selection of her performances from her 60's TV shows , only cost £ 7.00 which is a bargain it includes all the singles she did with George Martin and lots of album tracks from the albums he also produced for her, all have been brilliantly remastered , considering she did'nt have a great voice like Dusty, George Martin makes her sound great ?
This CD also has her version of Paul McCartney's "Junk" on it which is a track i've been after for years , her reading of this song is stunning  8)
Came across this on youtube Cilla and The Shadows doing Norwegian Wood

I have spoken to you about my relatives who are fond of the British pop-music and who BTW speak English perfectly well. When I meet them I have a chance to listen to some good 60s and 70s pop. It was at their place that I listened to Cilla Black.
My favourite songs sung by Cilla are:
Suddenly You Love Me.
What the World Needs Now.
This Is the First Time.
Follow the Path of the Star.
Misty Roses.
Take Me in Your Arms and Love Me.
Step Inside Love.

Anyone heard the George Harrison song "I'll Still Love You (When Every Song Is Sung ) ?
This is a song he wrote for Cilla in the early 70's when George , Ringo , Marc Bolan and Cilla were on aboard a yacht on route to see John and Yoko's film "Erection" at the Canne Film festival .
She recorded it in 1974 but it was not released until 2003 on The Very Best Of Cilla Black 1963 - 1978 .
I've orded this cd from Amazon as i'm keen to hear this song, i'm compiling a Cilla Black Beatles Songbook CD ;D
