#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
