  • Rebecca Harringon from Carroll, IaSusan Coriat born around d 1943 and passed away in 1971. I imagine that is why there isn't much about her.
  • The Obsessive Seacher from Somewhere In TimeTo: Super from Asheville, Nc- your answer which took me more than 9 months of intense research to "KNOW" the real name of the DDG girl with the big tattoo on the train with The Troggs in their Famous video is in fact: [actor] Jake Weber's mom. Her name is Susan Ann Caroline ('nee Coriat)-better known as Susan "Puss" Coriat. She married a socialite named Tommy Weber. They spent most their time getting high [the 60's] until Tommy knocked her up with her only child: Jake Weber. Sadly beautiful Susan OD'ed after much LSD and other drugs. She was born:1942 and Died: 1971. Tommy died not too long after. I found older pictures of her but none as she looked on the train. I really hate when beautiful women die. Think about Edie Sedgwick... so sad...
  • Trutha from Outer LimitsThey may have not realized it, but this song is about God.
  • Relentlessly_motivated from So. CaIn the Troggs Video: Love Is All Around- I have been searching for maybe 15-20 years as to identify the girl on the train. Every guy comments on her beauty. I [possibly] narrowed it down to 1 of 2 women: #1. Susan "Puss" Coriat or #2. Celine Danhier. Anybody else got any ideas? And like the comment er below Super from Nasheville, Nc, I, too, am not a stalker. Just looking for absolute clarification! Who is/was she?
  • French from BristolCant compare wet wet wet with the trogs this was truly a wonderfully song that sent my head swirling!!! I fell in love with lead singer, wet wet wet particularly Marty Pello has such a sickly grin completely spoilt this version
  • Ken from Philadelphia, PaWhile there was always more to the Troggs than the proto-punk of “Wild Thing”, this song, to me, still felt wildly out of character for them... to the point where I used to wonder if it was done ironically. (I had a mental picture of the record company badgering the band to make a “love song” so, finally, to shut them up and to show them how ridiculous they were being, the band wrote the sappiest, most-syrupy-sweet treacle they could come up with... and instead of infuriating the record company for wasting studio time on something so unreleaseably bad, they loved it, released it and made a lot more money than the band off the proceeds.). I can listen now, though and hear just enough hints of the Troggs garageband ethos in the background to understand that it was in earnest... if maybe just a tiny little bit tongue-in-cheek.
  • Victoria Semenenko George Michael's Baby from UkraineIn Wet Wet Wet official video for a song actually taken from "Four Weddings and a Funeral" there's not a model but Andy McDowell as an actress. And by the way in my life I really acted a bridemate exactly four times!
  • Howard from St. Louis Park, Mn It's definitely the antithesis of The Troggs first big hit "Wild Thing." It is a very pretty song and one of the best love songs of the late 60s.
  • Camille from Toronto, OhHere's an amazing song that you don't hear often enough on oldies radio. The song is sung in such a way that you could imagine your lover whispering the lyrics into your ear. It makes it seem calming and mysterious at the same time. I love when it says "there's no beginning, there'll be no end", perfect words in a love song. When you are truly in love with someone, it feels as tho you've always loved them and always will. This is one of those songs that made the 60s fabulous. Uh, it's just this year, 2013, tho, that I found it's sung by The Troggs, famous for "Wild Thing". Never knew!
  • Sharon from Calais, MeI can remember this song when I was growing up in the late sixties and early seventies. I loved it then and still do. It was one of those songs that would come to mind every now and then. WET WET WET did a great remake of this song also.
  • Super from Asheville, NcI have always wondered who the girl was in the "Love is All Around You" video. A model or just a pretty actress? Where is she now? Not a stalker, just a trivia nut.
  • Chantiel from Bakersfeild, United Stateswhen i was down my boyfriend house he played love is all around me, and i ask him who is singing that song, i fell in love with the lyrics all of my problems went away after hearing the Troggs play and in my heart i felt so much love, CHANTIEL GONZALEZ
  • Brenda from Wayne, Ok"Love is All Around" was 'our song' in the 60's and being very sentimental...my sweetie bought an original "Love is All Around" album, put out by Fontana records in 1967/68, as a Christmas present for me. It is one of my prized possessions...besides the sentimental sweetie. Also, I noticed that I have some of the songs that you don't have the lyrics for on this album. If I can find a stereo or record player for the album, I'll try to share the lyrics with you...if you'd like. Keep up the good work for all us baby boomers...Hi School Sr. 1969...senior citizen 2006!
  • Pete from Nowra, Australiagreat song ,.... played a lot at weddings here in Australia...beleive the band sacked their lead singer due to drug problems
  • Teresa from Mechelen, BelgiumThis is a very beautiful song, the cover of
    Wet Wet Wet is also good, but I prefer the original from the Troggs, always nice to hear it again.
  • Henning from Oslo, NorwayReg Presley was not the bass guitar player in The Troggs. He was the vocalist(lead singer). Pete Staples was the bass player, Ronnie Bond was the drummer and Chris Britton played electric guitar.
