  • Tossin' and turnin' is een single van Bobby Lewis uit 1961. Het nummer is geschreven door Ritchie Adams (van Fireflies) en Malou Rene (vrouw van de baas van het label). Het plaatje haalde twee maanden nadat het uitgebracht werd de eerste plaats in de Billboard Hot 100. Als een van de weinige plaatjes destijds bleef het daar zeven achtereenvolgende weken staan. Het maakte het plaatje direct hit van het jaar, aldus Billboard. Uiteindelijk gingen meer dan 3.000.000 exemplaren over de toonbank, maar...Belltone ging wat later toch failliet. (nl)

  • "Tossin' and Turnin'" is a song written by Ritchie Adams and Malou René, and originally recorded by Bobby Lewis in the fall of 1960. The record was released on the label in December 1960. It reached number one on both the Billboard Hot 100 on July 10, 1961, and R&B chart and has since become a standard on oldies compilations. It was named the number one single on the Billboard chart for 1961, after spending seven consecutive weeks at the top. It was also featured on the soundtrack for the 1978 film Animal House. On the original hit single version, the track begins with Lewis singing "I couldn't sleep at all last night", and it appears this way on most oldies compilations. However, on some releases the song has a prelude, where Lewis sings "Baby...Baby...you did something to me", followed by a musical cue into the first verse. Lewis usually included this prelude when he performed the song live. According to several sources, the personnel on the original hit recording included guitarist Wild Jimmy Spruill. In 2008, Billboard magazine ranked the song as the 27th biggest song of all time that charted on the Billboard Hot 100, commemorating the 50th anniversary of the chart. It is one of only six songs from the 1960s to spend at least seven weeks in the number one position on the Billboard Hot 100. (en)

Het plaatje haalde twee maanden nadat het uitgebracht werd de eerste plaats in de Billboard Hot 100. Als een van de weinige plaatjes destijds bleef het daar zeven achtereenvolgende weken staan.

Van het nummer bestaan eigenlijk twee versies. Al naargelang het uitkwam zong Lewis een : "Baby, baby, you did something to me". Het origineel begint echter met de zinsnede "I couldn't sleep at all last night . Lewis werd begeleid door onder meer Ritchie Adams en Eric Gale op gitaar, Bob Bushnell op basgitaar, King Curtis op tenorsaxofoon, Frank Haywood Henry op baritonsaxofoon, Paul Griffin op piano en Sticks Evans op slagwerk.
