Fortune Teller
Fortune Teller is a song written by Allen Toussaint under the pseudonym Naomi Neville and first recorded by Benny Spellman (single B-side on Minit Records 644) It tells the story of a young man who is pleased to learn from a fortune teller that he will find love "When the next one arrives". Next day he returns, angry that nothing has happened, but falls in love with the fortune teller. They get married and are as "happy as we could be", and he gets his "fortune told for free". Cover versions exist by The Rolling Stones, on their first live album, Got Live If You Want It!, overdubbed with screaming girls (a scream-free version is on the compilation album More Hot Rocks (Big Hits & Fazed Cookies)), The Hollies, The Stellas (CBS Records, 1965), The Who (on the re-release of Live at Leeds, as well as on Live at Hull 1970 and Live at the Fillmore East 1968), The Merseybeats, Tony Jackson, The Downliners Sect, The Iguanas, Strawberry Alarm Clock (recording as Thee Sixpence), and many others, including more recently the October 2007 album Raising Sand, performed by Robert Plant and Alison Krauss and the song was recorded with a new arrangement by Tony Saxon on the 2018 album "Old Souls & Long Term Goals" (Mint 400 Records)

fortune teller
A fortune teller is an individual claiming to have the ability to predict a person's future or reveal hidden information about their life through certain methods such as reading palms, tarot cards, astrology, or communicating with spiritual entities. This practice, often associated with mysticism or the occult, is typically done in exchange for money. Accuracy of such predictions is highly disputed and not scientifically supported.

It's just one of those movies. I'm very lucky to have been a part of it. It's given so many people pleasure.
