Charted at #20 on Billboard Hot 100 in July 1955. Theme song of the movie starring Burt Lancaster. Also #8 for Eddy Arnold on the Country chart in 1955. Original Billboard review: "One of the strongest readings of the much-covered ballad from the title flick. Lead singer Jimmy Sacca really delivers. This slicing could do right well in all exposure media. Bears close attention." Billboard rating: 80 out of 100.
Written by Irving Gordon.
B-side is "I Must Be Dreaming".

For no good reason, I still remember that the Hilltoppers' vocalist was Jimmy Sacca. What a great memory from my high school days....12 years ago

I used to whistle this song every morning on my paper route. Somebody hollered out their bedroom window...whistle something else! Hey you old fart...whistle this! Okay, but I was thinking it!13 years ago
