SAINT VALENTINE'S DAY - CAN'T TAKE MY EYES OFF YOU song -


On February 14th we celebrate Saint Valentine's Day.
On that day we say I LOVE YOU to people we love (family, friends...). 



This year we are going to sing this song in class. In my opinion, that is one of the most beautiful LOVE SONGS I know. 



CAN'T TAKE MY EYES OFF YOU (1967) by FRANKIE VALLI 




Other version of the same song. This time by the artist LAURYN HILL in 1998.





This song has been included in many films O.S.T., such as CONSPIRACY THEORY
 with Mel Gibson and Julia Roberts.
