The song became a hit in the U.S., peaking at No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 in January 1961. The follow-up single was "I'm in the Mood for Love", a song from the 1930s. This hit No. 38 later that year. In 1962, they began recording as Lenny & the Chimes, and moved to Metro Records and then to Laurie Records in 1963. In 1964, they released the single "Two Times" on Vee-Jay, but broke up shortly after.
