Throwing back to the week of November 29, 1955, we find a quintet of repeat offenders atop the Billboard chart. But none of those songs is as enduring a classic as the song at #6 that week, ‘Only You (And You Alone)’ by The Platters.
Amazingly, this doo-wop gem never made it higher than #5, but I’m confident it’s recognizable today to people from all generations thanks to its use in movies, TV shows, and commercials.
The Platters released five other songs that charted higher than this one, including four that reached #1. Two of those, ‘The Great Pretender’ and ‘Smoke Gets in Your Eyes,’ are as iconic as this one.
Appropriately, The Platters were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1990.
Only you can make, oh, this world seem right
Only you can make the darkness bright
Only you and you alone can thrill me like you do
And fill my heart with love for only you
[Verse 2]
Oh-only you can make, oh, this change in me
For it’s true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand, I understand the magic that you do
You’re my dream come true, my one and only you
[Verse 2]
Oh-oh, only you can make, oh, this change in me
For it’s true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand, I understand the magic that you do
You’re my dream come true, my one and only you
(One and only you)
Meet Me In Montauk 
definitely a classic!
