Charted at #26 in Billboard in May 1954. This great recording was overshadowed in the hit department by its #1 hit a-side, "Three Coins in the Fountain". What a great b-side this was though! Original Billboard review: "Oldie is punched across infectiously by the group for a solid effort that has strong juke box potential." Overall Billboard rating: 85 out of 100. This song had earlier been a #8 hit for Gene Austin in 1929.
Written by Sammy Fain, Irving Kahal and Willie Raskin.
@lateforbreakfast Hard to believe this recording was a b-side. It's so full of life and almost like an early rock and roll record with it's jumping rhythm. Love it!

@lateforbreakfast Love your comments, so glad I'm bringing back early '50's memories for you, and introducing you to some records you have not heard.

Until tonight I hadn't heard this version of this song, it is great...I just can't recall who I heard it by back in the '50's
