@thetonearm The flip side of Cole's single is perhaps better-remembered now:

Ann Cole with the Suburbans: "Each Day" (1956)

"Each Day" was also covered by the jazz singer Sylvia Syms for the pop market. For some reason, her version (released on Decca) omits the name of Clowney and only lists Bob Kornegay and Paul Winley as the writers of the song.

FILMS… Remembering Sylvia Syms in a BAFTA Award Nominated Role in The Tamarind Seed

A John Barry score is added to this (Tamarind) Seed crammed full of doubts… Sylvia Syms and her on-screen husband stole the movie in those scenes in this Blake Edwards directed Cold War movie…

Watched Dirk Bogarde and Sylvia Syms in Victim (1961) — not just an excellent British film noir, but one that helped change the law on homosexuality #DirkBogarde #SylviaSyms #Victim

Sylvia Syms 1934 - 2023

I inherited one of the iconic #Carlsberg beer glasses from my parents, who lived in the Middle East & North Africa for 20 years. Where it came from no idea.

RIP Sylvia Syms. My strongest memory of her is in The Saint, especially 'The Fiction-Makers'. She was also the mother of Beatie Edney (The Highlander). An incredible filmography spanning 64 years. #SylviaSyms #TheSaint #50shadesofgrade

#RIP #SylviaSyms (1934–2023)

Alluring, capable #actress in show business for 65 years.

Notable #film roles include:

She's excellent as #DirkBogarde's initially unsuspecting wife in #BasilDearden's landmark 1961 drama VICTIM, the 1st major #British #movie centered on a modern-day #gay character.

She's just as good as The Queen Mother in #StephenFrears' #Oscar-nominated THE QUEEN (2006).

Her final big-screen role was as 1 of the leads in Paul Duddridge's 2018 #drama TOGETHER.
