Botch-a-Me was a huge hit for Rosemary Clooney in 1952, but I'm unable to determine if she was the first to do it. Anyone here able to help?
On a related note, I also found a German version on YouTube ("Gerna möcht' ich küssen" by Renée Franke) supposedly from 1952 but I'm unable to find that recording on anything other than the 1986 compilation album Ding-Dong Boogie, so if anyone has the original release for that, I'll add that one to the site as well.
