Bobby Vinton - Halfway to Paradise (1968)


Playing Next: Kamaal Williams - Hold On (feat. Lauren Faith)
Random Page  /  Random Song


Charted at #23 on Billboard Hot 100 in August 1968, and #8 on Billboard Adult Contemporary chart. Remake of a song that was originally recorded by Tony Orlando in 1961 and became his first charting single, making it to #39. The song became more popular in the UK when it was recorded by Billy Fury and charted at #3 on the UK Singles chart. Original Billboard review: \"The Goffin-King oldie should prove one of Vinton's biggest hits of all time. Strong arrangement of the ballad and Vinton's in top vocal form. An out and out winner.\"

Written by Gerry Goffin & Carole King.

B-side is \"Kristie\". Later pressings of the single listed the song as \"(My Little) Christie\".
