"Come Go with Me" is a song written by C. E. Quick (aka Clarence Quick), an original member (bass vocalist) of the American doo-wop vocal group The Del-Vikings (also spelled Dell Vikings on Dot records releases, with no dash). The song was originally recorded by The Del-Vikings in 1956 and was released on Fee Bee Records. Norman Wright was the lead vocalist on this song. When the group signed with Dot Records in 1957, the song became a hit, peaking at #4 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 chart〔Whitburn, Joel (2004). ''The Billboard Book of Top 40 Hits'', 8th Edition (Billboard Publications), page 172.〕 and becoming the group's highest-charting song. The song was later featured in the films ''American Graffiti'' (1973), ''Diner'' (1982), ''Stand by Me'' (1986) and ''Joe Versus the Volcano'' (1990). ==Covers== Dion covered a version of the song on his 1962 album, ''Lovers Who Wander.'' Released as a single, it reached #48 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 in 1963.〔(Dion's charting singles ) Retrieved 09-23-11〕 "Come Go with Me" was later covered by the American rock band The Beach Boys and was included on their 1978 album, ''M.I.U. Album''. Although not released as a single at the time, the song was included on a Beach Boys compilation album, ''Ten Years of Harmony'', in 1981. This version was then released as a single to promote the compilation album, and it then rose to #18 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 chart in January 1982.〔Whitburn, Joel (2004). ''The Billboard Book of Top 40 Hits'', 8th Edition (Billboard Publications), page 51.〕 When that compilation was reissued on CD, an alternative take of the song was used. Israeli artist Danny Sanderson sings a Hebrew a capella version of the song entitled "Bo'ee Motek/בואי מותק" ("Come, my Darling"); this was released on his 1984 album'' חף מפשע'' (''Not Guilty''), on the CBS International label. In 2004, ''Rolling Stone'' magazine ranked the song #449 on its list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. The song was incorrectly listed as having reached #5 on the charts by ''Rolling Stone''. It peaked at #4 in 1957. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Come Go with Me」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
