The Isley Brothers are royalty of Rock & Roll no doubt, and "Twist & Shout," later covered by The Beatles was their first success story by reaching the Top 20 on the charts in 1962, but unfortunately for them, they didn't write that song, so all the money went to the writer Bert Berns.
After that, they released this killer song, "Nobody But Me," but it failed to chart.
In 1968, The Human Beinz from Youngstown, Ohio did a cover version of "Nobody But Me," that made it to number eight on the charts.
This song was written by The Isley Brothers, so they finally made some good money.
This version has the notoriety of being the most negative song to ever make the top ten, as the word "No" is repeated over a hundred times.
