  • Summer is here
    I need you so
    We'll be together
    Once more, I know
    Darling, I'll hold you
    Deep in the night
    'Cause when I hold you
    Everything is all right
    Because I love you so
    We'll go strolling
    Through the park
    And I'll caress you
    Somewhere in the dark
    And then, my darling
    I know you'll see
    You are the only love
    In this world for me
    Because I want you so
    Tell me you love me
    Make me a king
    For you, my darling
    I'd do anything
    Because I love you so
    Ooooooooooh!

    The Chantels' background singing give it a slightly sad and haunting beauty.

    Barrett does a superlative job with the lead. his high tenor up front is just right with Chantels providing a subdued, tasteful background... This is a 'keeper' and Barrett is deserving of our increased attention for his vocal prowess

    Beautiful, magical song. Perfect mix of lead vocal and angelic background. Man, do we need 1958 all over again! I was 14 and listened to radio late at night to a gentler world.

    Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. His voice here was velvet and the Chantels sang like angels! If you don't know it, checkout the version by Tony Rice on Princeton, too - more magic. (And check out Richard Barrett's "Some Other Guy," a Ray Charles-styled track that should have been a hit - and a cover of which was almost The Beatles' first 45!)

      That song almost became The Beatles' first single, but they held out for an original composition. Music history might have been very different. The Beatles' version is very good, but Barrett "owned" it from the first note.
