Wow- not "a bit" of a rip off- just a rip off.

I was going to say that this should be remade as a gay anthem (listen to the lyrics), but most gay kids these days don’t keep their sexuality a secret, and don’t largely need to “come out” anymore.

Jo Stafford is a Pete 2021 new-to-him artist pick. What a great voice -- what great phrasing.

The superior original doo-wop written-by the group non-boring-white-guys version -- one of the best songs of the 50s....
