04. John Leyton – Johnny Remember Me (1961)
When the mist’s a-rising
And the rain is falling
And the wind is blowing cold across the moor
I hear the voice of my darlin‘
The girl I loved and lost a year ago
This tune about a deceased woman haunting her lover’s memory was Joe Meek’s first number 1 hit, despite being banned by the BBC upon its release.
