Hush (Billy Joe Royal song)
"Hush" is a song written by American composer and musician Joe South, for recording artist Billy Joe Royal, whose single peaked at number 52 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 on 28 October 11 November 1967. The chorus begins "Hush, hush, I thought I heard her calling my name", which is a takeoff from the traditional gospel song lyrics "Hush, hush, somebody's calling my name". Kris Ife covered "Hush" in 1967. Australian performer Russell Morris recorded a version in 1967 with Somebody's Image, and a heavier version with his band The Rubes in 1980. The hook of the song "na-nana-na-nana-na-nana-na" has similarity with the bridge section of The Beatles song A Day in the Life. The Deep Purple version has a slower section also matching the timing with The Beatles song.
==Deep Purple version==
The song was subsequently recorded by British hard rock band Deep Purple for their 1968 debut album ''Shades of Deep Purple''. The track became the group's first hit single peaking at number 4 on the Hot 100 on 21–28 September 1968 and number 2 in Canada while going largely unnoticed in the United Kingdom. A live, US-televised version of "Hush" appeared as a bonus track on the 2000 CD-reissue of the ''Shades of Deep Purple'' album.
In celebration of the band's 20th anniversary, Deep Purple re-recorded the song in 1988 for their album ''Nobody's Perfect''. The track was released as a single and reached number 62 on the UK singles chart and number 44 on the US Hot Mainstream Rock chart.
"Hush" is one of four songs originally recorded with vocals sung by Rod Evans that the band have performed with Ian Gillan on vocals later on. Others are "Kentucky Woman", originally from the album ''The Book of Taliesyn'' from 1968, "Mandrake Root" from the same album that originally featured "Hush", and "Bird Has Flown" from the album ''Deep Purple'', or ''Deep Purple III'', released in 1969.
