They “Can't Take My Eyes Off (of) You”: Valli, Williams, Hill and Muse




Did you know that: NASA began a tradition of playing music to astronauts during the Gemini program,  which was first used to wake up a flight crew during Apollo 15? The original version of “Can’t Take my Eyes of you”, by Frankie Valli, was used as a wake-up song to Christopher Ferguson on the anniversary of his wife in 2008.
This song has been covered by many artists and bands over the years, in different countries. Andy Williams, Lauryn Hill and English rock band Muse are just some examples.
