In 1962 it was a hit for Little Eva’s backing singers, The Cookies (#17 U.S. Pop, #7 R&B),[1] and later covered by English rock group The Beatles.

They played the song live on a number of BBC radio shows, including Side by Side, Here We Go and Pop Go the Beatles (though none of these performances were included on the 1994 compilation Live at the BBC, it was eventually released on the 2013 compilation On Air – Live at the BBC Volume 2).[2] Sylvie Vartan version (in French){{Infobox song| name = Chance / Il revient / Reponds-moi / Tous les gens | cover = | alt = | type = single | artist = Sylvie Vartan | album = | released = {{Start date|1963||}}) | format = 7" EP | recorded = | studio = | venue = | genre = | length = | label = RCA Victor | writer = French adaptation: Georges Aber | producer = | prev_title = Tous mes copains | prev_year = 1963 | title = Chance" / "Il revient" / "Reponds-moi | title2 = Il revient" / "Reponds-moi" / "Tous les gens | next_title = En écoutant la pluie | next_year = 1963 }} The song was reworked into French under the title "Chance".

Beatles' version
Engineered by Norman Smith Personnel per MacDonald[6][3] InspirationNeil Peart, the drummer with Rush, was ten years old when Chains was released. And 32 years later, he wrote of it: " I still remember the first song that galvanized me: Chains, a simple pop tune by one of those girl groups, with close harmonies syncopated over a driving shuffle. No great classic or anything, but as I listened to that song on my transistor, suddenly I understood. This changed everything."[7]Notes1. ^{{cite web |url={{Allmusic|class=artist|id=p38047/biography|pure_url=yes}} |title=The Cookies >> Biography |publisher=allmusic |last=Eder |first=Bruce |accessdate=September 12, 2009}} 2. ^1 Harry (2000), p. 250. 3. ^1 2 {{cite web|url=http://www.beatlesbible.com/songs/chains/|title=Chains|publisher=}} 4. ^Lewisohn (1988), p. 26. 5. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.discogs.com/Sylvie-Vartan-Chance/master/693789|title=Sylvie Vartan - Chance at Discogs|accessdate=2017-11-16}} 6. ^1 2 MacDonald (2005), p. 74. 7. ^http://www.2112.net/powerwindows/transcripts/19940624stcatharinesstandard.htm References
