WHITFIELD


Listen to the wonderful David Whitfield who sings -

Santo Natale
I believe
Answer Me - there were two versions - Answer Me and Answer Me Oh My Love. What was the difference? One had the words Answer me Oh my love while the original had Answer me Oh my Lord.

As the BBC did not like the religious connotations of the original it had to be changed for British consumption - and probably the US although maybe not as they were probably not as fundamentalist in the 1950's as they are now.

His career was cut short by R & R and he died early at only 54.
