Here's the original by Santo and Johnny

This was Billboards #1 for 2 weeks in 1959. The Farina brothers were from Brooklyn, and this was their biggest hit. Surprisingly they are virtually unknown in the US, but were fairly famous overseas. They recorded over 40 albums, most of which are covers of almost every genre. They received a Gold Record in Italy and were inducted into the Hall of Fame in Italy and had their own TV show there. At last report, Santo is semi-retired and Johnny currently tours and records new material with his own band.
