“I Put A Spell On You” Single By Screamin' Jay Hawkins
from The Album At Home With Screamin' Jay Hawkins Released 1957 Format 7" 45 RPM Genre Rock And Roll Length 2 25 Label Grand 1949 Dubious – Discuss OKeh 1957 Writer S Screamin' Jay Hawkins Producer Arnold Maxon "I Put A Spell On You" Is A 1957 Song Written By Screamin' Jay Hawkins Whose Recording Was Selected As One Of The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame's 500 Songs That Shaped Rock And Roll. It Was Also Ranked #313 On The Rolling Stone Magazine's List Of The 500 Greatest Songs Of All Time. The Song Was Later Covered By Numerous Other Artists Including Creedence Clearwater Revival Crazy World Of Arthur Brown Nina Simone The Animals Them The Alan Price Set And Marilyn Manson. The Original Version
Hawkins Had Originally Intended To Record "I Put A Spell On You" As A Refined Love Song A Blues Ballad. He Reported However That The Producer "brought In Ribs And Chicken And Got Everybody Drunk And We Came Out With This Weird Version. I Don't Even Remember Making The Record. Before I Was Just A Normal Blues Singer. I Was Just Jay Hawkins. It All Sort Of Just Fell In Place. I Found Out I Could Do More Destroying A Song And Screaming It To Death." Some Sources Claim That "I Put A Spell On You" Had Been Released Earlier Than 1956 In A More Sedate Form But This Has Not Been Verified. The Date Of 1949 For An Original Release On The Grand Label Would Appear Unlikely Since It Predates Both The Formation Of The Record Label And The Beginning Of Hawkins's Performing Career. "I Put A Spell On You" Became A Quick Success Despite Being Banned By Some Stores And Radio Stations. A Softer Version Minus Certain Sounds Deemed "cannibalistic" Reached The Top 40 And Brought Hawkins Together With Alan Freed And His "Rock And Roll Review". Up To This Time Hawkins Had Been A Blues Performer Emotional But Not Wild. Freed Suggested A Gimmick To Capitalize On The "demented" Sound Of "I Put A Spell On You" Hawkins Wore A Long Cape And Appeared Onstage By Rising Out Of A Coffin In The Midst Of Smoke And Fog. The Act Was A Sensation Later Bolstered By Tusks Worn In Hawkins' Nose On-Stage Snakes And Fireworks And A Cigarette-Smoking Skull Named "Henry". The Theatrical Act Was One Of The First Shock Rock Performances And Was The Progenitor Of Much That Came Later In Rock And Roll Including Dr. John Alice Cooper Eric Burdon Screaming Lord Sutch Warren Zevon Arthur Brown Black Sabbath Ted Nugent George Clinton The Butthole Surfers The Cramps And Marilyn Manson Among The Many Who Vied For Hawkins' Title As A Rock And Roll Madman. “I Put A Spell On You” Single By Sonique Released 25 April 2001 US Format CD Single Genre Pop Sonique Singles Chronology "Sky" 2000 "I Put A Spell On You" 2001 "Can't Make Up My Mind" 2003 Alternate Cover Image |Alternate Cover|200px Edit Covers And Samples
