Written by Bob Crewe and Bob Gaudio this song was originally recorded by the US band the Four Seasons and released in 1964 on the flip side of US number one single Rag Doll (also composed by Crewe and Gaudio).
The British band The Temeloes recorded their version in 1967. Their cover reached number one on the UK Singles Chart and rose to 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 becoming one of the top performing songs of 1967. I was 12 years old that year and five and a half decades later it's still gold.
Silence is Golden.....
