I think the lead singer sounds like a white guy and I thought he was. I've always liked this song, it's great!

This was Mussolini's favorite version. Everything but the fascist salute.The group was formed in 1958 by Tony Carlucci (first tenor), Richard Wagner (baritone) and Lenny Renda (second tenor). They began practicing in the back room of a candy store and on local street corners, where they were heard by Joe Frazier, who called himself Speedo. His offer to help their harmonies turned into a full-fledged frontrunning spot with the group.They recorded for Hamilton record label, they were found by songwriters Artie Zwirn and Aristides "Gino" Giosasi, who wrote the song "Sorry (I Ran All The Way Home)". In 1959 disc jockey Alan Freed heard the group, added his name as a writer of the song, and got them a deal with MGM Records subsidiary label Cub. The record reached #2 on the U.S. pop chart, #14 on the R&B chart, and #28 in the UK Singles Chart. The song sold over one million copies earning gold disc status.The famous "uh-oh" at the beginning of the record was not intended, but a knee-jerk utterance by Speedo acknowledging that he had missed the cue given by Leroy Holmes, the arranger and conductor of the session. The A&R man said to leave it in there, so the "uh-oh" was repeated on the next take.The group recorded follow-ups including "Oh What A Fool," and an album for Cub, and one further single for the 20th Century label, before disbanding in 1961. Frazier went on to sing with Love's Own in 1973, and in 1980 resurrected the Impalas as a touring act.Joe "Speedo" Frazier died on April 1, 2014.

I'm SURE that in Stephen King's 'The Body' (eventually filmed as 'Stand by Me') it is mentioned that this song is by someone called Little Anthony!
