Got My Mind Set On You (originally I've Got My Mind Set On You) was first recorded by James Ray. He released ten singles between 1959 and 1964 but had only two hits, both in 1962: If You Gotta Make A Fool Of Somebody reached #22 in January and Itty Bitty Pieces reached #41 in May. He released I've Got My Mind Set On You in December but it failed to chart. All three songs were written by Rudy Cllark, who also wrote the Olympics' Good Lovin' – later a number one hit for the Young Rascals – and Betty Everett's It's In His Kiss. Ray died of a drug overdose in February 1965. He was only 24. Here is the original version of I've Got My Mind Set On You featuring the Hutch Davie Chorus:

Every once in a while, you come through! I had no idea that song was a cover. But now that I do, I will forgive George Harrison for writing a 6-word song.
