This one is a rock and roll song, done by a guy called Benny Spellman, I'm sure you've never heard of him, but I'm sure you've heard of The Rolling Stones, cos they done it— [Keith Moon] The Merseybeats!

At last something shook me As if it came down from above While looking at the fortune teller Now I'm in love
