(Debuted late ’61) 1962 Pop Chart Peaks: Music Vendor 14, Billboard 23, Cash Box 28 - UK Peak: 1

*Unlike Billboard’s Top 100 & Hot 100 charts, the British record charts at this time tended to reflect unit sales rather than popularity of individual song tracks. Thus, rankings _usually_ listed both sides of a single at the same position when both titles were determined to have contributed measurably to the disc’s success (whether or not either side would have reached a similar peak on its own).

THE 1962 HITS ARCHIVE - here in one place, a good-quality library of original-release-version best-sellers and songs which made an impact that were either released or enjoyed a major chunk of their popularity within the calendar year 1962 (some were recorded in 1961).
