It became an international pop hit in 1957–58 in a recording by British singer Laurie London, which is one of the best-selling gospel songs of all time. His recording reached #12 in UK and #1 on Billboard's <em>"Most Played by Jockeys"</em> chart, thereby becoming the first record by a British-born artist to top the charts in the rock and roll era.</p><p> </p><p>Laurie London never achieved another hit in either the US or UK. His subsequent recordings went unnoticed. He subsequently retired from the recording business at the age of 19 and worked in property and later ran a hotel until 2000. He is married and settled in the Palmer's Green area.</p><p><br></p><p>The backing track is from my CS.
