    1957: After surviving a scary plane ride to Sydney, Australia, where one of the engines caught fire, Little Richard vows he is giving up rock ‘n’ roll, telling the audience at his concert that night, “If you want to live for the Lord, you can't take rock 'n' roll, too.”

    1962: On this same day five years later, Little Richard, rocking and rolling again, meets the Beatles who are one of his opening acts. He dislikes John and George, finding them “rude.” But he’s quite smitten with young Paul, allegedly to the point of trying to seduce him.

Sedaka is so disappointed in the recording that he decides to record the song himself. That recording goes on to become Sedaka’s first chart hit as a singer.
