Charted at #94 on Billboard Hot 100 in November 1958. Their last Billboard charting single. There is a long list of artists who have charted with this song. Ready? Here are the others: #2 Country for Tex Ritter in 1945, #4 Pop for Al Morgan in July 1949 (#8 Country), #10 Pop for Hugo Winterhalter in October 1949, #11 Pop for Jack Owens in October 1949, #14 Pop for Bill Lawrence in October 1949, #22 Pop for Jan Garber and His Orchestra in October 1949, #2 R&B for Ivory Joe Hunter in 1949, #14 Country for Kenny Roberts in 1949, #62 Hot 100 for Tab Hunter in October 1958, #47 Hot 100 for Connie Francis in November 1965 (#10 Adult Contemporary, #44 UK) and #87 Country for Barbara Seiner in 1979.
Original Billboard review: "The gals give a solid, countryish reading of the old Al Morgan hit, also recently cut by Tab Hunter. Fine arrangment by Billy Vaughn. This can share in the loot." Billboard rating: 80 out of 100.
Written by Jenny Lou Carson.
B-side is "Encore D'Amour".

This was a Top 40 hit on the Music Vendor charts (sales and jukebox popularity) where it peaked at No. 33 and remained on the charts for 9 weeks.10 years ago

Though I am an ardent fan of Connie Francis, she cannot top the Fontane Sisters in singing "Jealous Heart". It is so sad that all the three sisters are now gone. Unlike the Chordettes, the Fontane Sisters have gentle voices.10 years ago

Liked that. Connie Francis probably produced the most dramatic version,but this was refreshing.11 years ago
