    Beauty Of YouTube: 3 VIDEO VERSIONS--The Flirtations/NOTHING BUT A HEARTACHE [[1968)

    Written by Wayne Bickerton & Tony Waddington

    NEW VERSION [[TO ME)--
    I was very surprised to see a video version of this song that I hadn't seen before. Perhaps it'll be new to you, as well. It's visually unexpected but enjoyably bizarre, beautiful, and fun all at the same time.

    Many thanks to Yrrah 0024 for this YouTube posting.

    FAMILIAR VERSION [[TO ME)--
    And here's the video version that I've been used to seeing, with The Flirtations in orange pants outfits that might be familiar to you, too. Another unique video concept in its own right.

    Many thanks to mezzomanUK for this YouTube posting.

    PLUS ONE MORE VERSION--
    This one utilizes the orange pants outfits footage along with some colorful graphic insertions and some black & white footage that I'm now seeing for the first time. Thought I better include it, too, for all the fans of The Flirtations and this great recording.

    I've seen a few more versions plus some "pantomine" performances. I saw the ladies in 1969 on a billing with Stevie Wonder and the Foundations.

    At the time, these was a rumour that Stevie was dating one of the girls...I think it was Ernestine.

    Check out some great performances from French TV.

    That's a great clip, Tbfxt. Thank you very much for posting it. I also just listened to SOMEONE OUT THERE performed in Spain which I also liked a lot. And their versions of LITTLE DARLING [[I NEED YOU) and NOWHERE TO RUN are also on YouTube. Glad you mentioned their other recordings.
