Herman's Hermits Lyrics
There's a
kind of hush all over the world tonight
All over the world you can hear the sounds of lovers in love
You know what I mean
Just the two of us and nobody else in sight
There's nobody else and I'm feelin' good just holdin' you tight
So listen very carefully
Closer now and you will see what I mean
It isn't a dream
The only sound that you will hear
Is when I whisper in your ear
"I love you forever and ever"
There's a kind of hush all over the world tonight
All over the world you can hear the sound of lovers in love
La la-la la-la la-la
La-la la-la la-la la-la
La-la-la-la-la la-la la-la-la
La la-la la-la
So listen very carefully
Closer now and you will see what I mean
It isn't a dream
The only sound that you will hear
Is when I whisper in your ear
"I love you forever and ever"
There's a kind of hush all over the world tonight
All over the world, people just like us are falling in love
Yeah, they're falling in love
They're falling in love
All over the world you can hear the sounds of lovers in love
You know what I mean
Just the two of us and nobody else in sight
There's nobody else and I'm feelin' good just holdin' you tight
So listen very carefully
Closer now and you will see what I mean
It isn't a dream
The only sound that you will hear
Is when I whisper in your ear
"I love you forever and ever"
There's a kind of hush all over the world tonight
All over the world you can hear the sound of lovers in love
La la-la la-la la-la
La-la la-la la-la la-la
La-la-la-la-la la-la la-la-la
La la-la la-la
So listen very carefully
Closer now and you will see what I mean
It isn't a dream
The only sound that you will hear
Is when I whisper in your ear
"I love you forever and ever"
There's a kind of hush all over the world tonight
All over the world, people just like us are falling in love
Yeah, they're falling in love
They're falling in love

(album).
"There's
a Kind of Hush" is a popular song written by Les Reed and Geoff Stephens which was a hit in 1967
for Herman's Hermits and
again in 1976 for The Carpenters.
The song
was introduced on the 1966 album Winchester Cathedral by Geoff
Stephens' group the New Vaudeville
Band; like that group's hit "Winchester
Cathedral", "There's a Kind of Hush" was conceived as
a neo-British music hall number although it is a
less overt example of that style. The first single version of "There's a
Kind of Hush" was recorded in 1966 by Gary and the Hornets,
a teen/pre-teen male band from Franklin, Ohio whose version—entitled "A
Kind of Hush" produced by Lou Reizner—became a regional success and showed
signs of breaking nationally in January 1967; the single would reach No. 4 in
Cincinnati and No. 3 in Erie PA. However an expedient coverby Herman's Hermits was released in the US in
February 1967 to reach the Top 30 of the Billboard Hot 100 in
three weeks and proceed to a peak of #4—affording the group their final US Top
Ten hit—with Gold certification for
US sales of one million units awarded that April. In the UK Herman's Hermits'
"There's a Kind of Hush" would reach No. 7. The success of the
Herman's Hermits version led to the release of the original New Vaudeville Band
track as a single in some territories with both of these versions charting in
Australia with peaks of No. 5 (Herman's Hermits) and No. 12 (New Vaudeville
Band) and also in South Africa where the New Vaudeville Band bested the
Herman's Hermits' No. 9 peak by reaching No. 4.

A Kind of
Hush (album)
A Kind of
Hush is
the seventh studio album by American popular music duo Carpenters. It was released in June 11, 1976.
By the
time of the album's recording, Richard
Carpenter'saddiction to sleeping pills had begun to affect him
professionally, and he blames this for the album being, in his opinion,
sub-par.[1] All three excerpted singles became
hits. "There's a Kind of Hush
(All Over the World)", a cover of a 1960s song by Herman's Hermits, broke both the UK Top 30[2] and US Top 20, as well as topping
the adult contemporary chart.[3] "I Need to Be in Love"
hit number 25 in the US[4] and number 36 in the UK.[2] "Goofus" was only a minor success, stalling
at number 56 on the Billboard chart, though it did crack the
adult contemporary top 10.[5]
John Bettis called "I Need to Be in
Love" the favorite lyrics he ever wrote for Karen Carpenter. "If there was ever anything
that came out of my heart straight to Karen's I would say that was it. I was
very proud of it for that."[6] Richard Carpenter recalled that
the song "became Karen's favorite Carpenters song".[1] The album was also the first not
to have Karen playing drums on any tracks, which were performed by Los Angeles session drummer Jim Gordon.
The
album, despite its gold certification and a high UK chart placing, was a
commercial disappointment in the US where its chart peak was outside the Top
30.[7] The CD has been out of print since
2006 except in the Japanese market.
