This work, from the film Marjorie Morningstar, was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Song in 1958, as was another Fain-Webster composition, A Certain Smile from the film of the same name. The song to win the Oscar that year was Gigi from the film of the same name.
By the time "Marjorie Morningstar" was released, there had already been seven releases of this work on single - four of which almost certainly came out in February and three which came out in February or March. Based on the information uncovered by the editors, it is possible that any one of these seven was the first released. We have recording date information for only one of the seven. - Published by
