PROGRAMME NOTES
Barry Ryan - 1968
"Eloise" is a song first released in 1968 on the MGM label.
It was sung by Barry Ryan, and written by his twin brother Paul Ryan.
Running for over five minutes, it features strong orchestration, melodramatic vocals, and a brief slow interlude.
It sold three million copies worldwide, and reached No. 2 in the UK Singles Chart as published by Record Retailer, but hit No. 1 in the NME and Melody Maker charts.
It topped the chart in 17 countries, including Italy, the Netherlands and Australia.
The single was released as "Barry Ryan with the Majority".
The Majority were a pop band, who for a period, were the backing band for Ryan and who, after renaming to Majority One, had some success in Europe.
Ryan also released an Italian-language version of the song, "Eloise (Versione Italiana)", in 1968.
After not being able to cope with the success of some of his hits as a duo with Barry,
Paul decided to take a step away from the limelight and to concentrate on songwriting.
"Eloise" was the second song he wrote and was influenced by Richard Harris' arrangement of "MacArthur Park" after listening to a rough mix of it at a party at Harris' house.
After listening to it, Paul locked himself away and wrote "Eloise" in three days.
The Damned - 1986
In January 1986, the non-album single "Eloise", a cover version of the 1968 hit by Barry Ryan, was a No. 3 chart success in the UK, the band's highest chart placing to date.
