Recording information by DMALPATRON
A cute song.
"Silhouettes" is a doo-wop song made famous by The Rays in 1957. A competing version by The Diamonds was also successful, and the song was a hit again in 1965 for Herman's Hermits.
In May, 1957, songwriter Bob Crewe saw a couple embracing through a windowshade as he passed on a train. He quickly set about turning the image into a song. Frank Slay, who owned the small Philadelphia record label XYZ with Crewe, added lyrics, and they soon had a complete song ready to record.
The British Invasion group Herman's Hermits recorded the song in 1965 after hearing the song on American Armed Forces Radio. It became their third hit in the US, reaching number 5 on the Billboard Hot 100. It also reached the top 5 in the UK.
