The Platters - Song Of The Week

You heard The Platters on our Cover Tunes Special and I bet you were surprised to learn that most of their hits were, in fact, cover versions of songs that had been hits in the 1930s and 1940s. The song we're bringing to you this week was originally a hit for Paul Whiteman and His Orchestra. However, The Platters made it all their own.

I know you will enjoy the amazing talent of lead singer Tony Williams and all of The Platters with Smoke Gets In Your Eyes, our Song of the Week.

Enjoy!
