Charted at #75 on Billboard Hot 100 in August 1958. The group has a Four Lads type sound. This was their only Billboard charting single. Original Billboard review: "Group works on a pleasant harmony kick on this okay ballad which makes a story out of a series of movie titles. Everything works to a happy ending, naturally. Boys are backed by thrush chorus on the attractive ballad, in shuffle rhythm. Could get spins." Written by Kal Mann and Bernie Lowe. B-side is "My Foolish Heart".

@BRG1942 You're welcome! Some of the lyrics and melody remind me of "No Not Much" as well, besides the Four Lads harmony similiarity.

You're right, they do sound a lot like the Four Lads. Never heard of them before, or this song. A nice upload!
