Gene Pitney - It Hurts to be in Love (live,16.05.1966)
It hurts to be in love
When the only one you love
Turns out to be someone who's
Not in love with you
It hurts to love her so
When deep down inside you know
She will never want you
No matter what you do
And so you cry a little bit
(It hurts to be in love)
Ah, I die a little bit
(It hurts to be in love)
Day and night, night and day
It hurts to be in love this way
How long can I exist
Wanting lips I've never kissed
She gives all her kisses
To somebody else
She thinks I'm just a friend
Though it hurts I must pretend
The only way to keep her
Is to keep it to myself
And so I cry a little bit
(It hurts to be in love)
Oh, I die a little bit
(It hurts to be in love)
Day and night, night and day
It hurts to be in love this way
And so I cry a little bit
(It hurts to be in love)
Oh, I die a little bit
(It hurts to be in love)
Day and night, night and day
It hurts to be in love this way
It hurts to be in love
Day and night, night and day
It hurts to be in love
Night and day, day and night
It hurts to be in love
Day and night, night and day

This isn't live, but that's OK. He's just miming which was almost always the case with television appearances in the 1960s.10 years ago

one of the greatest brill building era rock songs ever written. melody lines / use of minor chords x 10 / the whole thing is lennon-mccartney level 1964 songwriting. and gene pitney's air-raid siren lead/harmony stacked voices always great. singular type great. in all of the white doo wop NYC lead voices, NOBODY else sounded like pitney. outside of NYC? forgedditabout it. pitney's high range was like del shannon's falsetto on steroids, without even needing the falsetto technique.Twenty Four Hours to Tulsa and The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence are two of the greatest rock/pop records ever made, and It Hurts To Be in Love is even better. and oh man...Backstage is also a HOF corker (as a song and a vocal performance). . 11 years ago

What a wonderful bit of old film with a great singer. Thank you for the upload. I saw Gene Pitney on stage in the 60s in Bournemouth. He talked ,among other things, about his health. I think he took lots of thing to keep himself healthy. It was so sad that he died so relativity young. In my opinion, his talent was immense.11 years ago
