Don Casale, the famed producer of Iron Butterfly's In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida, wanted to re-record and re-release "Wakes Me Up."  Notice the title on the cover - did this guy speak English or what?  However, this ultimately led to the song being released in Europe and Israel.  The Israeli version had the lead vocals re-sung in Hebrew but they left the original bass vocal in English
