And Cynthia Weil, too, has left us.

With her husband Barry Mann she wrote some of the most well-known songs of the 1960s. I featured one of them here. So apparently simple, yet so effective.

However, the song of theirs people are most familiar with is probably You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feeling as performed by The Righteous Brothers.

To celebrate her skills I’ve chosen this recording by a British band, though.

The Animals: We Gotta Get Out of This Place

Cynthia Weil: October 18/10/1940 – 1/6/2023. So it goes.
