Career
Lind signed a recording contract with Liberty Records' subsidiary World Pacific Records in 1965, and it was on that label that he had his huge hit. The single may have done even better in the UK Singles Chart had he not had competition from Val Doonican, who released a rival version of the same song. In the end, both versions made No. 5 in the Top Ten in the spring of 1966. Lind also wrote "Cheryl's Goin' Home", which was covered by Adam Faith to become his last British hit.
