This gave me the shivers, I can feel his heart ache.

On December 7th, 1963 Ray Charles' "That Lucky Old Sun" entered Billboard's Hot Top 100; evenually it would peaked at #20 and spent 9 weeks in the Top 100.
Frankie Laine had the most successful version of this song; on October 1st, 1949 it reached #1 and stayed in the top spot for 8 weeks, Ironically it's 8 weeks at #1 was ended by Frankie Laine himself with his version of "Mule Train".
Other 1949 charted versions; Vaughn Monroe {#9}, Frank Sinatra {#16}, and Louis Armstrong {#24}.

@clamdraggin Yeah but he had a title: "the genius"
-
This is a great version but like many people before me have said. Jerry Lee Lewis owns this song. Just like Dolly Pardon done a good job with "I'll will always love you" but Whitney Houston owns that song.
-
first time i've heard this one and i have to say it's bloody brilliant
-
This is real music.
-
He brings tears to my eyes as he sings from his soul! We miss you Ray!
-
I fuss with my woman, toil with my kids,
I Sweat 'til I'm wrinkled and gray, til' I'm gray.
But she that lucky old sun, has got nothin' to do,
But just roll around, heaven all day.

Its amazing to me that all these other stars had titles..King of Soul, Queen of Soul
Empress of Soul...and nothing wrong with that. But every once in a long while...
comes along somebody SO good that they inspire...touch the soul...shake us to
the very core. Somebody SO good that they dont even need a title. This is that
star...known the world over as simply "Ray"...RIP Ray...never will there be another.
