SINGER: Donna Summer

SONG:There Goes My Babytd

Peaked at # 2 in 1959
their second-biggest hit, featuring lead singer ben e. king. co-songwriter jerry
leiber later commented it was his least favorite of all the hits written with partner
mike stoller; perhaps for this reason, the song is sometimes credited only to
nelson, patterson, and treadwell. considered by some historians to be the first
r&b hit to use strings, paving the way for the mass acceptance of r&b music by
white audiences, and the transition of r&b to soul music in the early 1960s. more
than two decades later, it was covered by donna summer as a top 25 dance hit in
1984. the drifters' original also inspired the title of a 1992 film starring dermot
mulroney and rick schroeder.
