Pat's last #1 hit came with this brooding song in May of 1961. By the time the Beatles appeared on the scene, Pat Boone had simply stopped recording popular music, either as a result of the change in American musical tastes or a change in his own personal outlook on life.

This song was a big hit for Pat in 1961. The DJs liked this song and it got alot of airplay. It has the one great quality that usually guarantees a hit ,and that is the song tells a story and people have always loved a story..

Rick Santorum brought me here....smh. What person born in the age of metal and rock wants to listen to this? Im not hating on Pat Boone or anything, but c'mon.
-
Rick Santorum recommended this as an alternative for heavy metal? Why would this appeal to a metal head? It's not bad but, I can't imagine this as my music preference.

I had a music professor ('Fessor Floyd Graham) at the University of North Texas tell our Music Appreciation class how he had put Pat Boone and Roy Orbison (both UNT students in the 50's) in a quartet. Pat Boone comes back to Denton, Texas (home of UNT) often and even sang the national anthem at UNT's new football stadium (Apogee Stadium) on September 10, 2011, and while even in his 70's still has the pipes. Still amazed how UNT had 2 pioneers of Rock & Roll on their campus at the same time.

Wow ! I've never heard this song before but I sure like it. You said that Pat stopped recording in the early sixties. Do you think maybe he just decided to crank down the recording schedule and raise a family ?

Well, he didn't exactly "stop recording", but he did stop recording what most people would call "popular music" and concentrated instead on his faith and whatever music was associated with that.
