Bobby Vee - Take Good Care Of My Baby (1961) 4K

Bobby Vee performing “Take Good Care Of My Baby“, released originally in 1961. It reached #1 in the US Billboard Hot 100, #1 in US Cash Box Top 100, #1 in the United Kingdom, #1 in New Zealand, and #1 in Canada. “Take Good Care Of My Baby“ was written by Carole King and Gerry Goffin, part of the legendary Brill Building club. Carole King pecked out the tune on the piano, and almost handed it over to Cynthia Weil, but Gerry Goffin turned up some lyrics for it. The song became King and Goffin’s second #1 single after The Shirelles’ “Will You Love Me Tomorrow“ put them on the map. This song was notable for being used in baby care product commercials. Only parts of the song would be used. Before this song, Bobby Vee’s claim to fame was filling in for Buddy Holly, who along with Ritchie Valens and The Big Bopper, died in rock history’s most famous plane crash en route to a show in Fargo, North Dakota. Vee had been scraping up a band already. On the
