Original Version
"I Just Don't Know What to Do With Myself" was first recorded by Tommy Hunt in a session produced by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller, with Burt Bacharach arranging and conducting. Released as single Scepter 1236 (B-side "And I Never Knew") in May 1962, "I Just Don't Know..." reached the Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles chart in Billboard with a #119 peak. The track served as the title track for Hunt's sole album release on Scepter released in April 1963. The success in the UK of the Dusty Springfield version of "I Just Don't Know..." in the summer of 1964 led to Scepter's re-releasing the original at that time.
