Okay, for you really early CFNY listeners, they used to play a raunchy-ish version of "Is That All There Is".

Lyrics were changed i.e. "Let's break out the 'Ludes' and have a ball, If that's all there is."

It was a female vocalist, maybe Patti Smith or Marianne Faithful but I can't find it anywhere. Does anyone remember it and who sang it?

Thanks!

It was by an artist called "Cristina" or "Christina" - the song was pulled from the stores shortly after release after Leiber or Stoller had a listen.

YES!! That's It! Cristina! Thanks, Audiofool! I guess I won't be able to find it anywhere?!

not likely in stores, unless you can snag a used copy somewhere

Wahey! What a great tune. Dear Sweet John Peel used to play it on his show in the 80s (here in the UK). Definitely the right time for a re-release! Do any of you remember another top tune Peel used to play called "My Suitor" by Berntholer (from Belgium)? RIP Peely.

If you can't find a copy but you want to hear the song again it gets played on this net radio show:
