Red Red Wine

"Red Red Wine" is a song originally written, performed and recorded by American singer Neil Diamond in 1967 that appears on his second studio album, Just for You. The lyrics are written from the perspective of a person who finds that drinking red wine is the only way to forget his woes.
The song is covered by the Backyard Gang Barbershop Quartet in School and the Backyard Gang (2001). Many of the song's questionable lyrics were changed.
This version was criticized by Courtney Love, bandleader Kurt Cobain's widow, as it was done without her knowledge. However, both Dave Grohl and Robert De Niro, who appeared in the movie, found no problem with it.
