Yvonne Fair

[robertson]

Is the Yvonne Fair version of the song It Should Have Been Me available on CD and, if so, which one?

[gary baldy]

Its on the Bridget Jones 2 soundtrack.

The version on the Bridget Jones soundtrack is a modern remix - does anyone know a CD which has the original version on?

[gary baldy]

I cant find the original Yvonne Fair version on any cd (it was only a minor hit for her).
Does it have to be the Yvonne Fair version? The original by Gladys Knight is much better in my opinion and possibly easier to find!
Kim Weston also did a version which was really good aswell.
Adeva also did a version in the 90's but i'm sure you are not interested in that one !
I'm almost 100% sure you cant get the Yvonne Fair version on a cd.

Only a minor hit? It reached No.5 in the UK chart allone and remained in the charts for 11 weeks. I am aware of the other versions, but none is a patch on hers.

Did it really? Blimey! I didnt realise.
I think ive got it on record somewhere but thats no use to you is it?
I'm was surprised when i couldnt find it on cd because she was very good (and a great song aswell) I found a cd with all her early hits on but it sort of stopped around 1974.
Sorry i couldnt be more help - its very frustrating isnt it?

Thank you, Mr.Baldy. I've ordered it from Amazon, and will now pray this CD contains the original version.
