ONLY YOU ...
I have revived this song and hope you would love to listen to my singing on this special song from The Platters. They got a very distinct high pitch and now I do have some confidence deliver some high pitch songs. I knew this musical group since the day I started to walk on my own 2 feet. It came to me when I was a babe. My late beloved father love all their songs.
"Only You (And You Alone)" (often shortened to "Only You") is a pop song composed by Buck Ram.[1] It was recorded most successfully by The Platters, with lead vocals by Tony Williams, in 1955.[2]

From: Wikipedia, the free encyclopaedia.
The Platters first recorded the song for Federal Records on May 20, 1954, but the recording was not released. In 1955, after moving to Mercury Records,
the band re-recorded the song (on April 26) and it scored a major hit
when it was released in May. In November that year, Federal Records
released the original recording as a single (B-side - "You Made Me Cry")
which sold poorly.[3] Platters bass singer Herb Reed
later recalled how the group hit upon its successful version: "We tried
it so many times, and it was terrible. One time we were rehearsing in
the car ... and the car jerked. Tony went 'O-oHHHH-nly you.' We laughed
at first, but when he sang that song—that was the sign we had hit on
something."[4] According to Buck Ram, Tony Williams'
voice "broke" in rehearsal, but they decided to keep this effect in the
recording. This was the only Platter's recording on which songwriter
and manager Ram played the piano.[2]
The song held strong in the number-one position on the U.S. R & B charts for seven weeks, and hit number five on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.[5] It remained there for 30 weeks, beating out a rival cover version by a white band called The Hilltoppers. When the Platters track, "The Great Pretender" (which eventually surpassed the success of "Only You"), was released in the UK as Europe's first introduction to The Platters, "Only You" was included on the flipside. In the 1956 film Rock Around the Clock, The Platters participated with both songs "Only You" and "The Great Pretender".
The song is included on the soundtracks of the films American Graffiti, The Delinquents, and Mr. Destiny.
The song plays on a radio accidentally left on all night by Clark Kent (Jeff East) in film Superman: The Movie. However, between the crackle of the radio and the sound created by the green crystal hidden in the Kents' barn, the song is barely discernible.
The song is in the 1991 film Hot Shots! starring Charlie Sheen. The song features in the 1994 Michael Hui film Tie ban shao (Teppanyaki).
The song is also featured in the 1993 Mike Myers cult classic So I Married An Axe Murderer. Partly sung in French by Nancy Travis during the wedding ceremony scene.
The song was featured heavily in advertising for Network Q during the early 1990s, with the song changed to 'Only Q'[10]
In the 1995 comedy Sgt. Bilko, Country music artist Travis Tritt sings it on the stage. Tritt's version was included on his 1995 album Greatest Hits: From the Beginning.
This song was adapted into Cantonese and Mandarin in the Hong Kong movie A Chinese Odyssey. In the song, Longevity Monk tries to convince the character Joker, who he thinks is the Sun Wukong, to protect him on his travels and put on the Monkey King's golden crown. Instead, Joker beats Longevity Monk over the head with a rod.
Lonestar recorded a cover version for the soundtrack to the film Where the Heart Is.
This song also appears in the 2009 Japanese film Zero Focus.
Filipino actor/singer Sam Milby sang a rock-version of the song which served as the theme song for the Filipino-dubbed airing of the Korean drama series Only You and later served as the theme song to the Philippine adaptation of the series, starring Milby and airing on ABS-CBN in the Philippines and The Filipino Channel worldwide.[citation needed]
The Platters' version appears at the close of an episode in season 3 (2005) of "Cold Case".
Only you can make this world seem right
Only you can make the darkness bright
Only you and you alone can thrill me like you do
And fill my heart with love for only you
Only you can make this change in me
For it's true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand I understand the magic that you do
You're my dream come true, my one and only you
Only you can make this change in me
For it's true, you are my destiny
When you hold my hand I understand the magic that you do
You're my dream come true, my one and only you
(One and only you)
