Subject: Who sang it?

Written By: QueenAmenRa on 07/08/04 at 11:51 am

Google ain't helping me much  so can anybody tell me:
Who originally sang "Love is All Around"?

Love is all around me
It's everywhere I go
So if you really love me
Come on and let it show


I'm not looking for Don Williams, if that's who the melody was taken from

If you didn't get it yet....I believe it was by the Troggs.

???  So is it Wet, Wet, Wet or the Troggs?  I used to hear the song on the oldies station so "Wet, Wet, Wet" doesn't really sound like an...oldies...group name, but then again I could be wrong.

Love is All Around was written by Reg Presley, lead singer of the Troggs.
They released it as a single in 1968.

Wet Wet Wet covered it in 1994.

no,wet,wet,wet was totally early 90'sish so the troggs must be the group you're thinking of..

Thanx guys.  So then I guess Don Williams either covered the song later or used the melody for something else.
