- Perry often recorded songs
between Christmas and New Year's Day
- and December, 1959, was
no exception. This song was recorded on the
- same day as a song which
turned out to be one of Perry's most novel hits,
- a song punning the names
of American "states" which turned out to be more
- popular in England than
anywhere else. Along with "Delaware", he recorded
the flip side
- of the single, "I
Know What God Is", and two other songs which were never released,
- "I Can't Remember" (above)
and a song titled "Mandolino".
