Although the Coasters had previously done well on the R&B charts, it was "Searchin'" (along with "Young Blood" on the flip side) that sparked the group's rock and roll fame.
"Searchin' (I Gotta Find a Man)" is a hi-NRG song written by Ian Anthony Stephens, originally recorded and made famous by British singer Hazell Dean. Originally released in 1983, it became a Top-Ten hit on the UK Singles Chart and U.S. Dance/Disco charts. It was covered by Australian girl group Young Divas in 2007.
The single was initially released in 1983 and peaked at number seventy-six in the UK Singles Chart. The song became a popular dance track, particularly so in gay clubs. After hitting the U.S. Dance charts, where it peaked at number eight, it was re-issued in the UK in 1984 and managed to reach number six in the UK Singles Chart, becoming one of her most successful singles to date. The song was later included on her album Heart First.

Young Divas version

It was produced by George Pappetros and released as the third and final single from the album on 17 March 2007. The song peaked at number 40 on the ARIA Singles Chart. A music video for "Seachin'" features the Young Divas dancing in a nightclub with men.

Matisyahu - Searchin
In the Earth, there are so many wonderful treasures.
And if you know where to dig, you will find gold, diamonds, all kinds of treasures.
But if you don't know where to dig, all you will find is rocks and dirt.
He can show you where to dig, and what to dig for, but the digging you must do yourself. (the digging you must do yourself)
Let go, of what y'all know
Return to the land of the rainbow
Where the sun hang low and the wind doth blow
And the tide it move so slow
Creeps and more through the window
Return to the land where the wild mare roam
And the buffalo go, yeah the buffalo go
Where the wild mare roam and ehh...
Cross the countryside search far and wide
Dig into the wheats upon the other side
Streams and the rivers and the oceans and the streets
Gonna swim with the fishes till I'm dee...

Cross the countryside search far and wide
Dig into the wheats upon the other side

Gonna swim with the fishes till I'm deep
Chorus 2x
I've been searchin' for you
I've been searchin' far and wide
I've been searchin' for you
All my life (my life)
Lift your eyes upon the other side
Sunrise and I fight to sleep through the night
Leap upon the skies on the clouds so high
When I fly by the heights feeling oh so right
Finally find the land and I'm kickin' up sand
When I stand and deliver the plan
Would you please back down
Or get slammed to the ground
When my slams strike thunder
While your village is under
Now you wonder why you going under
Got yo' self on the run from the numbah 1
That you can't run from
You spin and faint
You feel hunger (hunger)
Chorus 2x
In the Earth, there are so many wonderful treasures. And if you know where to dig, you will find gold, diamonds (diamonds, diamonds...)
