Reason US release declined

"Pitney's US record company declined to issue the record in America on the grounds that buyers would mistake it for a vocal duet by two gay men, Almond being leather-clad as usual, and Pitney dressed in a white tuxedo."

Anyone have a reference for this? It sounds like an unsubstantiated urban myth to me. --62.31.116.126 12:33, 21 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds like standard American attitude, to me. I would wager it's very true indeed.

Smells like bullshit to me. There are countless gay artists who enjoyed great success in the US, so why not Marc Almond ? -- Alexey Topol (talk) 12:14, 21 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Genre

Is the original Gene Pitney version really rock-and-roll? I'd much rather call it a melancholic ballad that's somewhere between Bubblegum pop and Baroque pop, somewhere between Franki Valli, the 60s Manfred Mann band, and Aphrodite's Child. --2003:71:4F24:A80:A800:64BD:EDA9:C240 (talk) 21:01, 11 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
