Liv Maessen and Jimmy Hannan had a go at a duet in 1971. It
made no impact on the charts..."Love Is For The Two Of Us" b/w “Did
You Give The World Some Love Today Babe” (FB-092) The single was produced by
Geoff Hales for Fable Records. The A side was penned by Taku Izumi & Michio
Yamagami and was given English lyrics by Sydney Lee. It also seems the Original
version was sung in 1967 by Naomi Sagara and its original title: “The world is
a thing for beloved two lovers”. Further research finds that the original
English version was performed by Rene & Rene, a Latin pop duo from Texas. Thanks to Doug Smith and Matt Gleeson from the
“Milesago” FB page, for their good sleuthing for more info on this song. On a personal note back in our radio days Mrs
Ozzie myself and Graham were given a copy of this single to fix up for air
play. The single was in pretty bad shape and after many hours of running through
many computer programs I guess you could say we got it presentable enough to
play on air. It has taken me about 4 years or more to find a copy to fix up
again, so here’s hoping this will put the nightmares and demons to bed, “you
had to be there”!!! Flac
