Baby It's You主唱去世

1969年Smith合唱團曾經翻唱the Shirelles的老歌"Baby It's You"，推出後成績較原唱更好，獲得排行榜第五名 (Shirelles版於1962年獲得第八名)，這個合唱團的主唱Gayle McCormick不幸於三月一日過世 (67歲)。

Gayle McCormick於1949年出生於聖路易，1960年代中期於故鄉加入Steve Cummings & The Klassmen合唱團，開始她的演唱生涯，曾經有幾首歌獲得當地歌迷的青睞，1969年她轉往加州發展，接手了快解體的Smith合唱團，並和 ABC-Dunhill唱片公司簽了約，沒想到這個合唱團因"Baby It's You"爆紅，但是接著推出的"Take A Look Around (#43-1970) 與 "What Am I Gonna Do" (#73-1970) 成績就不行了，1971年Smith合唱團因而解散，Gayle McCormick離開Smith合唱團後推出的第一首歌"Gonna Be Alright Now" (#84-1971)，成績仍無起色，但是第二首歌"It's A Cryin' Shame"於1971年得到第44名，成績還差強人意，她 的第三首歌"You Really Got A Hold On Me" (#98-1972)，讓Dunhill唱片公司決定與 她解約，後來 她轉往Decca 與Fantasy唱片公司繼續奮鬥，但都無法回到排行榜，直到1975年 她才以"Coming In Out Of The Rain"回到抒情歌曲排行榜。

Smith合唱團1969年翻唱的老歌"Baby It's You"，曾經大受歡迎，相信老歌迷們 一定印象深刻。

Baby It's You

Songwriters

 BACHARACH, BURT / DAVID, MACK / WILLIAMS, BARNEY

It's not the way you smile

 That touched my heart

 It's not the way you kiss

 That tears me apart

Uh oh, many, many, many, nights go by

 I sit alone at home and I cry over you

 What can I do?

Can't help myself

 Cause baby it's you

 Baby it's you

You should hear what they say about you

 Cheat, cheat

 They say, they say you never, never, ever been true

 Cheat, cheat

Whoa oh, it doesn't matter what they say

 I know I'm gonna love you any old way

 What can I do? Then it's true

Don't want nobody, nobody

 'Cause baby it's you

 Baby it's you

Whoa oh, it doesn't matter what they say

 I know I'm gonna love you any old way

 What can I do, when it's true?

Don't want nobody, nobody

 'Cause baby it's you

 Baby it's you

 Don't leave me all alone
