#UB40-4-DUMMIES Red Red Wine
Just decided to spread the word... This is why UB40 is a my religion!
If you start listening to UB40 you'll start a journey through time and music.
Yes! They covered a bunch of songs. But if they didn't you would never be aware these songs exist.
1983 Red Red Wine
UB40 covered Red Red Wine for Labour of Love.
They thought the original was Tony Tribe's UK hit in 1969.
But when the song reached # 1 in the UK they discovered it was a 1968 Neil Diamond song!
Red, red wine, goes to my head,
Makes me forget that I
Still need you so
Red, red wine, it's up to you
All I can do, I've done
But memories won't go
No, memories won't go
I'd have thought that with time
Thoughts of you would leave my head
I was wrong, now I find
Just one thing makes me forget
Red, red wine, stay close to me
Don't let me be alone
It's tearing apart
My blue, blue heart
I'd have thought that with time
Thoughts of you would leave my head
I was wrong, now I find
Just one thing makes me forget
Red, red wine, stay close to me
Don't let me be alone
It's tearing apart
My blue, blue heart
