This is the first Filipino composition in English. Written by Salvador Asuncion, the song was written in response to discovering his wife was having an affair with another man. Recorded by Johnny Astor and his Orchestra in 1946 on the Lirio label - Lirio was the name of Salvador Asuncion's wife. In 1950, this was made as a movie starring Rogelio Dela Rosa. Johnny Astor had a cameo appearance in the movie as a radio announcer
