Today and tomorrow we present competing versions of this song. The one by Glen Campbell had a better history, making it to #32 on the Hot 100, #6 on the easy listening and #3 on the country charts in a few weeks. Wayne Newton’s take (which we’ll give you tomorrow) reached #14 on the easy listening side but only #60 on the pop charts. It’s a very well written song by Chris Gantry about a woman who used to turn heads but gave it up for domestic life. Glen’s version is a personal favorite.
