Entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 on 12-30-1958, it peaked at No. 17 and spent 11 weeks in the Top 100...
The flip side of this record also charted, "Desire Me", it reached #47..
On 02-15-1947 the King Cole Trio's version reached #1 {for 1 week} and spent 12 weeks on Billboard's Best Sellers chart..
Also in 1947 three other versions made the Top 10; Eddy Howard {#6}, Dinah Shore {#6}, Charlie Spivak {#7}...
In 1961 the doo-wop group The Cleftones took their version to #60...

@indure08 You met Belafonte?! Wow that must have been something to hear him talk to you! And I agree, if Sam Cooke had lived beyong 1964 he would have become the greatest black singer and entertainer at that time! He would have surpassed not only Belafonte, Sammy Davis Jr. Nat King Cole, and Poitier, he would have surpassed Marvin Gaye, The Supremes, Chuck Berry, Etta James, Little Richard, Sly Stone, and even Jimmi Hendrix.

@sheltv100 Yeah that would've been something. Perhaps Harry Belafonte and Sidney could've just been a sidekick for the group...what a thought. I just saw Belafonte and met him about 2 weeks ago here in Chicago, and I asked him about Sam (both were on RCA at one point)...and he saidhimself had Sam lived into 1965, he would've become the greatest Black singer/entertainer of the 60s, past himself, Sammy Davis and King Cole...he said Sam was just THAT dynamic.

@indure08 That would have been wondeerful! The Black Rat Pack (Or Negro Rat Pack as they would have put it bakc then). Nat King Cole, Sam Cooke, Sammy Davis Jr. and Sidney Poitier. But Sidney Poitier cannot sing. But they all had one thing in common, they were the best dressed black men at that time and I follow their styles.

For years Sam Cooke is one of my favorite singers, who unfortunatelly left this world years before I was born... too early indeed.
His voice is so unique, soft and romantic but also can be very sensual and deep at times. I just can fly way when I hear his songs...
