    It's Remember Then.

    I think he died a few days ago.

    No shit, Sherlock, but "I believe" there was an earlier version (or
    maybe it was just a different pressing?) called "Remember When."

    Not everyone's cuppa tea I know but I always liked "Remember Then"

    Got quite a bit of airplay here but failed to chart probably because of the competition from this UK cover version that also saw good airplay

    Yes, the Earls version was still on the charts in early 1963.

    As Bruce says it was a cover and even more so when you take into account that tho The Earls 45 came out in USA in November 1962 it was January 1963 before it got UK release (on EMI's Stateside label).

    The Jimmy Powell UK cover (on Decca) was also released in January 1963
