EVERLASTING LOVE |
Sung by the BBCTV Cast |
MICHAEL OMER was asked by director NIGEL DOUGLAS and producer SALLY HAYNES to arrange and produce an authentic cover version of the 1967 hit "Everlasting Love" for this long-running BBCTV drama series. It would take the form of part of the "live" action in the final 1998 episode of the series, and would involve the actual cast.
This came to fruition to great effect in the programme - the cast were absolutely sensational, especially REBECCA WHEATLEY who sang the lead vocal, both in the show, and "LIVE" on TOP OF THE POPS, the long-running BBCTV Chart Hit Show.
CASUALTY, for those out there who won't know, is the UK's very own "E R", and has been immensely popular on BBC Television since it's inception in the 1980's.
The Tennessee-based writing team of Mac Gayden and Buzz Cason wrote "Everlasting Love" in 1967, and it was a hit for the UK band "Love Affair" the following year. It has also been a British hit for Robert Knight, Rex Smith and Rachel Sweet, Sandra, Worlds Apart & Gloria Estefan. The CASUALTY version went STRAIGHT IN AT NUMBER FIVE.....only the Love Affair version has been a bigger hit!

(1) WHITE CHRISTMAS and (2) UNCHAINED MELODY
Track 1: Everlasting Love (Radio Version)
