"Save Me" is a song by Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich, released as a single in December 1966. It peaked at number 3 on the UK Singles Chart. [2]
Reception
Reviewing for New Musical Express, Derek Johnson wrote that the band "certainly believe in ringing the changes. This time they've abandoned the Bend in favour of an up-tempo, almost breathtaking, exotic Latin rhythm. It's a sort of bossa rumba, with a touch of Afro-Cuban thrown in for good measure". [3] Reviewed in Record Mirror, it was described as "a powerful up-tempo belter, marked by clever drumming and piercingly exciting falsetto vocal work". [4]
