"It's Not Unusual" is a song written by #LesReed and #GordonMills, first recorded by a then-unknown Tom Jones, after having first been offered to #SandieShaw. He intended it as a demo for her, but when she heard it she was so impressed with his delivery that she recommended he sing it instead. The record was the second Jones single #Decca released, reaching No. 1 on the #UKSinglesChart in 1965. It was his first hit in the #UnitedStates.

It's not unusual
Happens every day
No matter what you say
You'll find it [occurs]
all theβοΈ
π₯° will never do
what you want it to
Why can't this crazy π₯°
be mine?

It's not unusual
for #JimmyPage to play sessions
but Les Reed said it was Joe MorettiπΈ
(but Page DID do Bassey's Goldfinger gig).
