I just love that tune. I've never heard of Ellen McIlwaine. Anne, which album is that on? I would like to order one of her cd's and check it out. donna

If you have any doubts about this song, THIS is the version to listen to. It 's like she took all the sweetener out of the Bobbie Gentry version and injected a shot of whiskey. Great, great version - and it doesn't leave you wondering what they dropped off the bridge so much as just makes you feel the desperation of the girl who sings the song. lots of love Anne
