Of course I still love this version too! No words | Reviewer: Sasha | 7/18/08 Im only ten and i LOVE this song. It has a great beat and a great tune. Now i heard of this song at about six years old but acctually found out about it this year. In fourth grade, we have to learn ballroom dansing. ( Its not really fun ) but we had to dance the swing ( or Jitterbug ) to it. It was all our favorite dance and music to the dance so, whenever we heard our teacher Mrs. Mary play it, we would not care anymore who we are dancing with and have fun. I would always hear a great roar when the music started. Magnificient | Reviewer: Luis | 12/12/07 I agree with You, Jimena, but let me do a little correction: this song has an unpulled history behind it, but the history, as it been said and wroten by great fellows of the life oh this Giant of the Jazz, one of them Paco de Lucía, and also trough many researches and a little bit of life's experience, the history goes more beyond the problems within Ray Charles and Betty Hendricks, one of the best singers from his choir. The problem was within Charles and his wife, Bea. She said to him, repeadtely, to leave home when Charles hadded the drugs and love-cheating issues. It's a long story I would enjoy to tell You and every single person who really interest him/herself for this Man and his heaven and helly music. Greats for the Big Ray Charles! Great creation! | Reviewer: Jimena | 12/1/07 I´m Argentinian and this excelent music travels arround the world. In my opinion, this record is one of the succesful songs by Ray Charles. Besides it has a history includded, which is the affair between the member of the choir and Ray. It´s a record to hear over and over again! Excellent music and lyrics | Reviewer: Keith | 11/16/07 In reply to your question, the female vocalist on the song with Ray Charles was Margie Hendrix. She was a member of the '50's group, the Cookies, who later changed their name to the "Raelettes" by Mr. Charles himself. He also had a long standing affair with her and from the movie, "Ray", this was the song to tell the world, in their own way, he wants out of the relationship with her and vice versa. Excellent music and lyrics | Reviewer: wanda | 11/13/07 It's a song that anyone would enjoy singing over and over again - great duet for karaoke - never mentioned the female singer on that particular song - she's great, would like to know her name. ligthen up man... | Reviewer: john paiva | 10/8/07 woooah man the person who left the comment below was obviously havin a well bad day. this songs awesome nd different interpretations are also great. please jus leave a happier comment next time. yuh? CANNOT BE DUPLICATED | Reviewer: BOBBY | 9/29/07 THIS VERSION OF THE SONG BY RAY CHARLES CANNOT BE DUPLICATED. HE HAS SOMETHING THAT CANNOT BE CLEARLY DEFINED, OTHER THAN THE FACT THAT PEOPLE LOVE IT. the song | Reviewer: tamara | 8/12/07 i love it im only 10 but i love the beat 2 it and we sang this at school it was just so cool love this song | Reviewer: Gabe Couch | 7/18/07 i'm a small town performer, this song is perfect for hecklers, and hard to please people; which i plan to sing it too when ever the opportunity arises.
