| Black Is Black Los Bravos Black is black I want my baby back It's gray, it's gray Since she went away, Ooh-Ooh What can I do 'Cause I-I-I-I-I'm feelin' blue If I had my way She'd be back today But she don't intend To see me again, Ooh-Ooh What can I do 'Cause I-I-I-I-I'm feelin' blue I can't choose It's too much to lose My love's too strong Wow! Maybe if she would come back to me Then it can't go wrong Bad is bad That I feel so sad It's time, it's time That I found peace of mind, Ooh-Ooh What can I do 'Cause I-I-I-I-I'm feelin' blue I can't choose It's too much to lose My love's too strong Wow! Maybe if she would come back to me Then it can't go wrong Black is black I want my baby back It's gray, it's gray Since she went away, Ooh-Ooh What can I do 'Cause I-I-I-I-I'm feelin' blue..... 'Cause I-I-I-I-I'm feelin' blue |

| . Originally known as Los Sonor, Mike Kogel (b. 25 April 1945, Berlin, Germany; vocals), Antonio Martinez (b. 3 October 1945, Madrid, Spain; guitar), Manolo 'Manuel' Fernandez (b. 29 September 1943, Seville, Spain, d. 1969; organ), Miguel Vicens Danus (b. 21 June 1944, Palma de Mallona, Spain; bass) and Pablo 'Gomez' Samllehi (b. 5 November 1943, Barcelona, Spain; drums) were voted Spain's top beat group following two Top 10 hits in their own country. Kogel had previously recorded as Michael And The Firebirds, Mike Keller and Mike And Joe And The Rebel Guys. They achieved international recognition in 1966 when 'Black Is Black', a song composed by two Englishmen, Tony Hayes and Steve Wadey, rose to number 2 in the UK charts in the wake of heavy promotion on pirate radio. The song's compulsive hookline proved equally popular in the USA where it reached number 4. |
