The Clooney version did not chart in the USA despite Billboard magazine of March 12, 1955 saying "The sales curve on this disk is also showing a fine upward slope after little more than 10 days in the field" but it was very popular in the UK where it reached No. 6 in the charts in 1955 during a 15-week stay.[5]
