In 1981, A Taste Of Honey recorded an English rendition to the Japanese sung single by Kyu Sakamoto, which hit #1 on the Hot 100 in 1963. It would become soul group’s first hit since their 1978 single “Boogie Oogie Oogie” hit #1. The single would almost become a #1, reaching #3 for three weeks during the month of June that same year.
