Description
This ‘Golden Oldie’ was penned by singer Maurice Williams in 1953 at the age of 15 — after a failed attempt to convince his date to stay out past 10 pm. The song didn’t get noticed until 1960 when it took Maurice Williams and the Zodiacs to the charts with #1 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song was knocked from it’s pedestal a week later by Elvis Presley’s ‘Are You Lonesome Tonight’. The song found renewed popularity when it was included on the soundtrack to the 1987 hit film ‘Dirty Dancing’.
