If we lost true love and sweet devotion
Your lips excite me let your arms invite me
For who knows when we'll meet again this way"
These are lyrics from the song rated number two in 1960. Which Elvis recording, sung to the music of "O Sole Mio", do the lyrics come from?
The correct answer is 'It's Now Or Never'
Normally, a record that tops the chart for five weeks and has a five-month run in the Hot 100 would have a good shot at being rated number one for the year. That wasn't the case for this song, however; "A Summer Place" was a juggernaut of popularity that couldn't be overtaken.
This song introduced the public to the new, mature Elvis Presley, just returned from his military stint in Germany. “O Sole Mio” was written in 1899 and was a staple for operatic tenors for many years thereafter. In fact, Caruso first recorded it in 1916 and it rose to number three on the charts of the day. With fresh English lyrics written by Aaron Schroeder and Wally Gold, Presley’s version is hardly operatic. Instead, it oozed sensuality with the promise of commitment... a love song. With the saucy Latin tempo, it couldn’t miss. It remains my personal favorite Presley song of all time. It recorded 1596 points, 61 more than the record at number three for the year.
