It was recorded by Dickie Valentine in the United Kingdom and by Jane Froman in the United States. Valentine's version reached number one in the UK Singles Chart in 1955.[1] Valentine's version was produced by Dick Rowe and released on Decca Records - catalogue reference F 10394.[1] The track was a UK chart topper twice over. Firstly for one week from 7 January 1955, and then for a further two weeks from 21 January. Its chart topping run was interrupted by "Mambo Italiano".[2]
