Rhythm and Blues

The song “You’re So Fine” features some beautiful singing from this R&B group (with a bird name) from Detroit. The song was written by Lance Finney, Willie Schofield, and Bob West.  It was a million-seller for The Falcons, going to #2 on the R&B Chart and #17 on the Billboard Top 100 in 1959. The Falcons formed in 1955 and saw their share of personnel changes over the years.  At different times, members included Eddie Floyd, Joe Stubbs, Wilson Pickett, and Mack Rice.

There have been numerous artists who covered the song. There are versions by Johnny Burnette, Boz Scaggs, Wilson Pickett, Ike and Tina Turner, and Tony Orlando, to mention a few.

Here are the lyrics to “You’re So Fine” by The Falcons:

“You’re so fine, you’re so fine
You’re mine, you’re mine
I walk and I talk about you

I love you, I love you
I need you, I need you
I walk and I talk about you

There’s nothing in the world
As sweet as your kiss
So fine, so fine

Every time we meet
My heart skips a beat
You’re my first cup of coffee
My last drop of cream

You’re so fine, you’re so fine
You’re mine, you’re mine
I walk and I talk about you

You’re so fine, you’re so fine
You’re mine, you’re mine
I walk and I talk about you”
