"(She's) Some Kind of Wonderful" is a song written by John Ellison and first recorded by his group, Soul Brothers Six, in 1967, peaking at number 91 on the U.S. ''Billboard'' Hot 100. It is not related to the other song by the same name written by Gerry Goffin and Carole King (and recorded by artists including the Drifters and Marvin Gaye). ==Other versions== *The Fantastic Johnny C covered the song in 1968, reaching number 87 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100. *In 1974, Grand Funk Railroad recorded the song〔() 〕 for the group's album ''All the Girls in the World Beware!!!''. Reaching number three on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 on 22 February 1975, it ranked #74 on Billboard's Hot 100 year-end chart for 1975 (but the 27 December 1975 print edition of ''Billboard'', which contained the Hot 100 for 1975 that Casey Kasem followed, erred in placing it at #6 and in placing all the songs from #6 through #73 one position lower apiece) and is one of the band's best-known songs. Their version of the song appeared in the video game ''Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas'' on the fictitious radio station K-DST. *British blue-eyed soul band Q-Tips (featuring lead singer and guitarist Paul Young) recorded a version on their 1980 debut album, although on the label it was mistakenly credited to Goffin and King. *Conway Twitty released a cover on his 1977 album, ''Play Guitar Play''. *Buddy Guy released a version of the song on his 1993 album, ''Feels Like Rain''. *Huey Lewis and the News charted with their own version, including it on their 1994 covers album, ''Four Chords & Several Years Ago''. *Little Milton and Delbert McClinton collaborated on a cover version for Milton's 1999 album, ''Welcome to Little Milton''. *Toploader released a version on their 2002 album, ''Magic Hotel''. *Joss Stone released a version on her 2003 debut album, ''The Soul Sessions''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Some Kind of Wonderful (Soul Brothers Six song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
