John Lennon wrote the song; he said he was struck by the double meaning of "please" in the Bing Crosby song; "Please will you listen to my pleas" and he wrote the song in the style of Roy Orbison - it was speeded up when the Beatles recorded it.

"Before You Were Mine" by Carol Ann Duffy was published in 1993 as part of her poetry collection entitled "Mean Time."
The Drifters - 1961 - Rudy Lewis not Ben E. King Duffy - 2008 Lorraine Ellison - 1961 Lisa Walker Williams - recent The Cryin' Shames - 1966 Burt Bacharach - 1961 (I believe) As far as I know these are the only artists of any stature that recorded Please Stay Hope this helps
Duffy has sung Rockferry, Warwick Avenue, Stepping Stone, Serious, Sryup and Honey, Hanging on too Long, Mercy, Delayed Devosion, I'm Scared, Distant Dreamer, Rain on your Parade, Fool for You, Stop, Oh Boy, Enough Love, Please Stay and Breaking my own Heart and a few more I think. I am a HUGE fan of Duffy myself and I hoped this has helped!
