The single spent 24 weeks in total on the chart, with five of those at number 1.

In 2002 it was listed as the UK's 19th-best selling single of all time, with sales of 1,521,000.

Bobby Vinton released a cover of the song in 1966. His version reached No. 59 on the Billboard Hot 100, while reaching No. 27 on the Billboard Easy Listening chart. In Canada, Vinton's version reached No. 24 on the " RPM Play Sheet" and No. 14 on RPMs "GMP Guide".
