Bonus for all you Lulu fans out there (you know who you are...)

Lulu - Wenn Du Da Bist
German release from 1966, didn’t chart
it might translate as "if you are there" or "when you're there"

you are now hypnotized, you will go out and buy her 6 CD box set...
wait, wait, she doesn't have a 6 CD box set !
reverse hypnosis, reverse hypnosis !

Bonus video, bonus video: The Beatles – Rain

the fab b-side didn't make the UK charts (as it did in the States, and as a lot of Beatles b-sides did in the UK), but it was played on Top of the Pops just as often as Paperback Writer...
