One More Time

Happy birthday, Maurice Williams, lead singer with the Zodiacs.  Maurice had a long career in R&B, but only one hit on the Billboard charts.  Still, what a hit.  "Stay" went to #1 in 1960.  Maurice had written the song a few years before when he was a teenager.

It's ironic that a song about begging to stay is the shortest #1 ever, clocking in at 97 seconds. You'd think he could have made it just a little bit longer.
