Eloise (Barry Ryan song)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Eloise" is a pop song released by MGM in 1968 as a 7-inch, 45 rpm record. It was sung by Barry Ryan, and written by his twin brother Paul Ryan. Running for a little over five minutes and 41 seconds, it featured strong orchestration, stronger vocals, and a brief slow movement. In that it is similar to the same year's hit "MacArthur Park". "Eloise" sold 3 million copies worldwide and reached number 2 in the UK's Record Retailer chart, but hit number 1 in the NME and Melody Maker charts.
In 1986 it was remade by The Damned, reaching number 3 in the UK charts and in 1987 by Spanish artist Tino Casal.
