Oh no Terry. Sadly sums up how bland pop music was in 1989. A cover of a cover - Paul Anka wrote the original.
Distinctive slightly wonky 70's synths made Captain & Tenille's version. The song itself isn't anything remarkable.

It's Neil Sedaka, but close

Sorry. I meant Neil Sedaka - honest!
Thanks for correction.
Neil always seems like a nice jovial guy.

He makes my skin crawl
I heard Ronan Collins saying he went to a gig of his and after every single song, Neil went to the front of the stage to bask in an exaggerated and uncomfortably long standing ovation

Which I thought was hilarious

Anka's Teen Spirit cover was OK.
Love Cats was terrible though.
He left out the lines "Hand in hand is... I hate little mieces, How can we love someone as dumb as this?"

Worst Nirvana cover is still Tori Amos - SLTS (1992).
No irony, just an early version of the terrible mellow, OTT 'emotional' formula that is continually heard on adverts and films for years.
