Lyrics:

Many a tear has to fall but it’s all in the game
All in the wonderful game that we know as love
You have words with him and your future’s looking dim
But these things your hearts can rise above

Once in a while he won’t call but it’s all in the game
Soon he’ll be there at your side with a sweet bouquet
And he’ll kiss your lips and caress your waiting fingertips
And your hearts will fly away

(Soon he’ll be there at your side)
With a sweet bouquet
Then he’ll kiss your lips and caress your waiting fingertips
And your hearts will fly away

I have an original mono 45 of this! Love this classic song from 1958! Covered by many but no one can do it like Tommy ! Died in Richmond, VA, in Oct. 1969, only 47 yrs old.

I have both the’51 & this ‘58 version of this song. What a world of difference a good music arranger could do. This version is fantastic. I believe that Tommy’s MGM contract was ending shortly and this was a last minute recording session redo of this song. I believe when the record took off to #1 MGM renewed his contract - smart move! God bless you Mr. Edwards!

This '58 classic shows what a difference great arrangement can make. having heard the '51 version, I knew this was an instant classic. I was 12 y/o, in 7th grade.------What a time it was to be young. ----------------MJL, 76 y/o

In the UK, it made #1 on the New Musical Express singles chart, but kept pinned down at #2 on the others in existence at the time (Record Mirror, Melody Maker and Disc).

I love this record too. Beautiful. Also, this record was featured in the movie "October Sky" about future NASA rocket scientist Homer Hickam Jr. The film was set I'm the late-50s, and used other early rock and roll songs popular at the time.

there were problems back then but the music was 100 times cooler than now. today's 'star' typically a robot.

The tragedy of Tommy Edwards ; his manager took all of his money, & Tommy died alone, penniless, a broken man. -----how many times, have we heard this story , but this man surely did not deserve that. ---------------MJL, 76 y/o

The remastered version sounds like it's pitched down 1/4-1/2 step...you can tell this is the correct speed

The stereo version is better.

@the45prof98

4y↑6

Well, that was an example of very early MGM stereo in which they added a layer of unnatural reverb to the track which wasn't on the familiar hit that we heard on the radio and played at home on our record players.

@t40onbass

4y↑3

@@the45prof98 I've got your back here.
Even though MGM made him redo his early '50s recordings in stereo and this take is from those sessions it's obvious to me they mixed this to be the more commonly heard mono version.
Those early stereo mixes were more experimental than they were the be-all-end-all of what they wanted the general public to hear.

@johnjames4213

I absolutely appreciate your detail information on many of the records!!! Thank you 45prof. I have his late 1950s early 60s 331/3 album but I’m fairly sure it’s monaural.

@johnjames4213

3y↑2

Also even if any nice clean monaural record is played on one’s stereo in “stereo “ mode rather than mono, the sound will be enhanced, fuller because your stylus is picking up slightly varied sound from left and right sides of the record groove. The trade off is you’ll hear more scratches and surface noise in a less than perfect record.
