 Changed to Feb 1953 for now, where it goes well together with nearby numbers in the Columbia catalogue, which could have been released earlier as well. Somebody with better information may take over.

Also corrected Mitch Miller's misspelled name.

 Actually, it reached Number 1 in the NME charts on 13 Mar 1953. It entered the charts on 13 Feb 1953 but it did not go straight in at Number 1, it took another month to go all the way. That release date of March 1953 is wrong, however. The latest it could have been released was 6 February 1953, but since the chart was only a Top 12 in those days it was probably released in January 1953.

I heard this song in a movie soundtrack once (I can't remember which movie it was). The song was released some nine years before I was born.

Oddly enough, Guy Mitchell's two British chart-toppers in 1953 were not his biggest successes in the States. This one only got to number 19 in the USA, while his other UK smash in 1953, "Look At That Girl", did nothing at all over there. His only transatlantic chart-topper was "Singing The Blues", although he did hit the top in both countries with different singles.

 'Feathers' another great sing-along song from Guy Mitchell.
