Throwing back to the week of November 30, 1954, we find The Chordettes atop the Billboard chart with ‘Mister Sandman,’ followed by two more repeats: Eddie Fisher’s ‘I Need You Now‘ and Rosemary Clooney’s ‘This Ole House.’
In the fourth spot, on the way to a peak at #2, was ‘Teach Me Tonight’ by The DeCastro Sisters, a trio of Cuban-born siblings. This was the fifth version of the song to land on a Billboard chart between 1954 and 1955, and the one that made it the farthest.
Five years later, the sisters would release a new arrangement of this song, more in line with the popular music of the time, titled ‘Teach Me Tonight Cha Cha.’
Well don’t think I’m trying not to learn
Since this is the perfect spot to learn
Teach me tonight
Starting with the ABC of it
Getting right down to the XYZ of it
Help me solve the mystery of it
Teach me tonight
The sky’s a blackboard high above you
And if a shooting star goes by
I’ll use that star to write “I love you”
A thousand times across the sky
One thing isn’t very clear my love
Should the teacher stand so near my love
Graduation’s almost here my love
You’d better teach me tonight
I’ve played loves scenes in a flick or two
And I’ve also met a chick or two
But I still can learn a trick or two
Hey teach me tonight
I who thought I knew the score of it
Kind of think I should know much more of it
Off the wall, the bed, the floor of it
Hey teach me tonight
The midnight hours come slowly creeping
When there’s no one there but you
There must be more to life than sleeping
Single in a bed for two
What I need most is post graduate
What I feel is hard to articulate
If you want me to matriculate
You’d better teach me tonight
What do you get for lessons
Teach me – come on and teach me – teach me tonight
Meet Me In Montauk 
I don’t know this one at all. Curious if those alive in the 50s are familiar with this song.
I was and I do 😉
