What a wonderful period, the years 50 and 60! What a sweat memories !

[@fredtappin]

This is probably the best ever version of this classic song with regards to The Platters, also superb. Love it.

[@marilyncooper7208]

Fred Tappin agree

[@SpaceCattttt]

I disagree. This is a classy version, certainly. But it doesn't have the burning passion of the Platters' version, which is what makes that one definitive.

[@pascaldijkhuizen6600]

Have you heard Hannibal Peterson's version?

[@sambora123]

Shirley bassey

[@HockeyDudeJames2]

I disagree

[@leradichtyar6646]

They asked me how I knew My true love was true I of course replied "Something here inside Cannot be denied" They said someday you'll find All who love are blind When your heart's on fire You don't realize Smoke gets in your eyes So I chaffed and I gaily laughed To think they would doubt my love Yet today, my love has flown away I am without my love Now laughing friends deride Tears I cannot hide So I smile and say "When a lovely flame dies, Smoke gets in your eyes."

[@TheDreamingJune]

One of my favourite singers of all time.

[@evantvede6452]

She´s wonderful. Period.

[@LittleBo1962]

One of the best songs ever written. Great voice on this one.

She passed away much too early at 39. R.I.P.

[@marilyncooper7208]

True Platters best. But Dinah is so great 😀 ❤️. Her singing

[@richards085]

Emmadale Sent me here

[@kevinvandekoolwijk]

I remember a version/outtake of this where in the beginning she impersonates Billie Holiday. Anyone know where that one is to be found?

[@soulfella1]

MAGIC!! also done by another totally class singer[Tony Williams, Platters lead singer] been angered by Amy Winehouse fans, who try to place Her in this August company,there was, and will only ever be one Dinah !! Surely, logic dictates, that if your favourite singer,listens to, and is influenced by another,it's the better singer.So make comparisons??

[@hedleyfinger]

Brian Ferry's version is very good.

[@lisandromagalhaesnogueira5707]

BELA

[@HockeyDudeJames2]

Her phrasing and timing doesn't do it for me on this particular performance. Tony Williams is the standard.
