In 1963, The Duprees made number 37 on the billboard with their own version of this song (see video clip below). Margaret Whiting and Patti Page also recorded this song in 1952.



Here's a clip from April 2008 where The Duprees deliver this song again:



Lyrics:

Why don't you believe me?, it's you I adore
Forever and ever, can I promise more?
I've told you so often the way that I care
Why don't you believe me?, it just isn't fair

CHORUS
Here is a heart that is lonely
Here is a heart you can take
Here is a heart for you only
That you can keep or break

How else can I tell you, what more can I do?
Why don't you believe me?, I love only you

REPEAT from CHORUS

Sin (It's No Sin) - Eddy Howard

Billboard Magazine's #1 Single Nov. 17 - Dec. 28

This song hit the charts for six different performers in 1951! Eddy Howard was the only one to reach the no 1 billboard position. In this clip, we hear three different versions:

1) Billy Howard
2) The Four Aces
3) The Duprees



Lyrics:

Take away the breath of flowers
It would surely be a sin
Take the rain from April showers
It's a sin
Take away the violins, dear
From a lovely symphony
And the music deep within
Would cease to be
Is it a sin to love you so
To hold you close
And know you are leaving

Though you take away my heart, dear
Still the beating there within
I'll keep loving you forever
For it's no sin

Is it a sin to love you so
To hold you close
And know you are leaving
Though you take away my heart, dear
Still the beating there within
I'll keep loving you foreve
For it's no sin
