There are many songs that take us back to a different time. The best of these songs take us back to happy days that we can remember with positive emotions.
This song, written by Bernie Wayne and Lee Morris in 1950, charted well for a young Tony Bennett in 1951, reaching the top 20. As is often the case, other artists picked up the song and recorded it, but the interpretation that everyone remembered was the 1963 version, recorded by Bobby Vinton on the Epic label.
It was on the Blue on Blue album. Blue Velvet went to No. 1 in 1963. We heard it often then and in the years that followed.
