It was the record which made Vee an international star. The song was recorded on August 12, 1960, in a four-song, three-hour session at United in Hollywood. It was produced by a 19-year-old Texan, Thomas "Snuff" Garrett, arranged by Ernie Freeman, and was co-written at the Brill Building in New York by Gene Pitney, using his mother's maiden name (Orlowski), and by Aaron Schroeder. Veteran session drummer Earl Palmer played drums at the session.[1] The song was Vee's fifth single release in the US, where it made #6 on the Billboard charts; it was a breakthrough hit for him in the UK, where it reached #4.[2] In Australia, it was Vee's only #1 record, where it stayed for three weeks in early 1961. The record also marked Vee's first use of overdubbing his second vocal. The song was covered as a single by British singer Marty Wilde, who also had chart success when it went to #9 in 1961.[3] Gary Lewis and the Playboys revived the song in 1966 on their album Hits Again!.[4]References1. ^ Scherman, Tony, Backbeat: The Earl Palmer Story, forward by Wynton Marsalis, Smithsonian Institution Press, Washington D.C., 1999 p. 175, {{ISBN|978-0306809804}}. {{Bobby Vee}}{{1960s-single-stub}}2. ^{{cite book| first= David| last= Roberts| year= 2006| title= British Hit Singles & Albums| edition= 19th| publisher= Guinness World Records Limited | location= London| isbn= 1-904994-10-5| page= 584}} 3. ^{{cite book| first= David| last= Roberts| year= 2006| title= British Hit Singles & Albums| edition= 19th| publisher= Guinness World Records Limited | location= London| isbn= 1-904994-10-5| page= 602}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.discogs.com/Gary-Lewis-The-Playboys-Hits-Again/master/351941 |title=Gary Lewis & The Playboys - Hits Again |website=Discogs.com |date= |accessdate=2016-10-25}} 9 : 1961 singles|Songs written by Gene Pitney|Songs written by Aaron Schroeder|Bobby Vee songs|Gary Lewis & the Playboys songs|Number-one singles in Australia|Song recordings produced by Snuff Garrett|Liberty Records singles|1961 songs |
