You Never Can Tell

"You Never Can Tell" (also known as "C'est La Vie") was a minor hit for Chuck Berry in 1964, later covered by Emmy Lou Harris and many others. The song later became famous as the sound track for the dance number in "Pulp Fiction," featuring John Travolta and Uma Thurman. I found a couple of videos of Chuck Berry singing it in live performances, but they are off key so I have not included them. Instead, here are a few covers, followed by the dance scene with Berry's original recording.
