Nothing But

The Flirtations - Nothing But A Heartache
The Flirtations - How Can You Tell Me?
Another fine example of a song featuring dramas of the heart lyrics combined with a driving beat and uplifting orchestration (as touched on in the previous post). Originally released in 1968, Nothing But A Heartache was The Flirtations biggest tune. It became a Northern Soul favourite and was recently used in a KFC advert here in the UK -- nothing but a stomach ache would've been more apt.
