(VIDEO) This Classic 1955 Church Song Still Gives Me Chills Every Time I Hear It
“In The Still Of The Night” is a song written by Fred Parris and originally recorded by his group, the Five Satins. While it was a moderate success upon its initial release, it has since gained significant airplay and is now considered one of the greatest doo-wop songs ever.
Over the years, the song has been covered by numerous artists, including Boyz II Men and Debbie Gibson, and featured in several films.
Parris penned this timeless classic in 1955, in the basement of a local church. The video below features a live performance excerpt from the film “Sweet Beat.”
The song’s popularity surged again when it was included on the 1987 soundtrack for “Dirty Dancing.” In 2010, Rolling Stone ranked it at number 90 on their list of the Top 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. VIDEO BELOW:
