I wonder if anyone realises that all except one of their Top 50 hits were cover versions.
Here they are: Sweets For My Sweet - originally by The Drifters Sweet Nuthin's - originally by Brenda Lee Sugar & Spice - originally by Tony Hatch Needles & Pins - originally by Jackie DeShannon Don't Throw Your Love Away - originally by The Orlons Someday We're Gonna Love Again - originally by Barbara Lewis When You Walk In The Room - originally by Jackie DeShannon Goodbye My Love - originally by Jimmy Hughes (titled Goodbye My Lover Goodbye) He's Got No Love (their only non cover) When I Get Home - originally by Bobby Darin Take Me For What I'm Worth - originally by P.F. Sloan Take It Or Leave It - originally by Rolling Stones Have You Ever Loved Somebody - originally by The Hollies |

according to Second Hand Songs, Sugar and Spice wasn't a cover either. Tony Hatch's instrumental recording wasn't till 1965.
