Searchin

[Hist]

Who sings the original song searchin?

[quizbabe]

The Coasters in 1957 I think and The Hollies in 1963

[Qmark78]

Lynyrd Skynyrd

[SOMMERS]

I thought this was the music page not the quiz one - why do people put minimum effort into their questions and then expect everyone else to do all the running around.....
So how about Searchin' by Hazel Dean ?

[jammer]

Could be Keep Searching by Del Shannon

[postmanthe]

Sommers if we're getting picky didn't you miss
(I GOTTA FIND A MAN) off of the title

[SOMMERS]

As I said, postmanthe, a few more clues in peoples questions wouldn't go amiss. We've already covered 5 different tunes.

[jammer]

Fair point well made sommers-but on the other hand if we were short of time or had something better to do we wouldn't be on here.

Thank you postmanthe. The Young Divas have revised the song Searchin so that might be a bit more help.

Searchin sung by Change, a funk type song in the early eighties

[SOMMERS]

I'd forgotten Searchin by Change - what a tune. I was the only dj in town with a 12 inch version. All the other dj's used to send a runner to my club and borrow it. In a single night my copy would be played at 3 or 4 different clubs.
By the way did you know that the vocals on this were Luther Vandross ?
