Monday, November 7, 1960*: 'Will You Love Me Tomorrow'

Released on the Scepter label, the song would enter the Billboard music charts on November 21 at No. 87. Originally titled simply "Tomorrow," it would be the first number one hit for songwriters Gerry Goffin and Carole King (in January 1961) and the first number one hit by a "girl group" (the Shirelles).

* I can't quite pin down whether the song was released November 7 or November 14.
