I
just heard it on the radio, can't get it out of my mind. It reminds me
of my High School prom and my date that night - Barbra Williams.
"Stay" is a doo-wop song written by Maurice Williams and first recorded in 1960 by Williams with his group the Zodiacs. Commercially successful versions were later also issued by the Hollies, the Four Seasons and Jackson Browne.
The song was written by Williams in 1953 when he was 15 years old. He
had been trying to convince his date not to go home at 10 o'clock as she
was supposed to. He lost the argument, but as he was to relate years
later, "Like a flood, the words just came to me."
