Yeh, Yeh

"Yeh Yeh" is a Latin soul tune that was written as an instrumental by Rodgers Grant and Pat Patrick, and first recorded by Mongo Santamaría on his 1963 album Watermelon Man. Lyrics were written for it shortly thereafter by Jon Hendricks of the vocal group Lambert, Hendricks & Ross. This version of the song was taken to the top of the UK Singles Chart in January 1965 by Georgie Fame and the Blue Flames (b/w "Preach and Teach", Columbia DB 7428), breaking The Beatles' long-term hold on the number one spot (of five weeks with "I Feel Fine"), and a month later appeared on the US Billboard pop singles chart to peak at #21. (The US single edited out the saxophone solo break.)

Interviewed after the 2003 Jools Holland Spring Hootennany, where he had played a "dynamite version" of the song, Fame explained that the arrangement had been written by Tubby Hayes.

Other notable covers include those by pop/rock duo They Might Be Giants on their Mink Car album, and Matt Bianco, who covered the song in 1985, reaching number 13 in the UK Singles Chart (the single version was then included in their second eponymous album in 1986, while the respective CD edition of the album only contained its 12" Dance Mix — both versions featured on the MC edition of the long playing work, depending upon the various countries). British actor and musician Hugh Laurie also included a live cover version of Yeh, Yeh on his album Didn't It Rain.

Yeh Yeh

by: Matt Bianco

every evening when all my day's work is through
I call my baby and ask her what schould we do?
I mention movies but she don't think with me beg.
And then she asks me why don't I come to her flat
And have some supper and let the evening pass by
By digging records beside a groovy hi-fi.
I say yeh-yeh: that's what I say: I say yeh-yeh.
My baby loves me
she gets me feelin' so fine
The way she loves me she makes me know that she's mine.
And when she kisses I feel the fire get hot
She never misses
she gives it all that she's got.
And when she asks me if ev'rything is okay
I got my answer
the only thing I can say:
I say yeh-yeh; that's what I say: I say yeh-yeh.
We'll play a melody
and turn the lights down low so none can see.
We gotta do that
we gotta do that
we gotta do that
we gotta do that.
And there'll be no one else alive
in all the world than you and me.
pretty baby
I never knew such a thrill
It's hard to tell you because I'm trembling still.
pretty baby
I want you all for my own
I'm even ready to leave those others alone.
No need to ask me if everything is okay
I got my answer
the only thing I can say:
I say yeh-yeh; and that's what I say: I say yeh-yeh
yeh yeh.
We'll play a melody
and turn the lights down low so none can see. . . .
And that's what I say: I say yeh-yeh
and that's what I say: I say yeh-yeh
