This one was requested by Bernard Dantuono who wanted it for his sister to celebrate 50 years of marriage and it is the song that she danced when she got married !
Hope I’ve done it justice Bernard !!

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. 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." According to Buck Ram, Tony Williams' voice "broke" in rehearsal, but they decided to keep this effect in the recording. This was the only Platters recording on which songwriter and manager Ram played the piano.

Played on my Alan Brason Stratocaster with Kinman FV-HMS pickups on mid posn through an Alesis quadraverb Q2 with EFTP patch 0-36 – Sound recorded in Cubase SX 6 and edited with the three 4K video takes in Sony Vegas pro 14.

I used a Karaoke Custom Backing track muted the vocal and backing vocals and downloaded it 1 semitone lower that the Eb the Platters recorded it in. So my recording is in the key of D.

Lyrics
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
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 do
You're my dream come true
My one my one my one and only you
