I've been a Timi Yuro fan for more than 40 years, ever since I first heard "What's A Matter Baby" on Finnish radio, not knowing who or what it was.

There used to be a pretty good mid-sixties video clip on YouTube with Yuro miming to that record, but unfortunately it doesn't seem to be available anymore.

However, I've been watching the following video many times over the years - this was filmed during her surprising early 1980s comeback in Netherlands. She was obviously enjoying the adulation she got from the Dutch audience and did fantastic versions of these two classic pop songs:

I don’t recall ever hearing Timi Yuro on the radio. And I feel cheated.
This single went to # 12 on the Billboard pop chart. It shoulda gone higher.
Listen to that insistent, defiant, and self-sure voice, and those beautiful backup voices.
😍 (swoon!)
