My Righteous Brothers CD played in the shop today
I took a break during Ebb Tide

Intrigued me

I always loved the orchestral versions

"When he opened the paper to check the day's listings, his eye was immediately captured by an ad for From Here To Eternity, the film that jump-started Frank Sinatra's flagging career.

I have a feeling Deborah Kerr captured many eyes.
