The original artist was known for reinvention and visual presentation. Today’s song was also the title of his third album which was a break stylistically from the previous two. This artist was inducted into The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996.

After the initial release of the song it was covered by a female artist, who put a cabaret vamp spin on it under the production of the original artist.

The Shadow band today was extremely influential in popularizing their particular genre of music in the 90’s. They recorded this song for a popular music TV series at the time.
