Again, Willie's
And for last, The Pet Shop Boys'. The memories!!!
And none of them was the original!
Written by Johnny Christopher, Mark James, and Wayne Carson, the track was first recorded by B.J. Thomas in 1970, but was never released.
Brenda Lee recorded the song on September 22, 1971 at Bradley's Barn recording studio in Mount Juliet near Nashville. This version was released on June 12, 1972 and peaked at #45 on the country chart. The play may have been published by Gwen McCrae earlier that same year.
