Heartaches (song)

"Heartaches" is a song written by composer Al Hoffman and lyricist John Klenner and originally published in 1931. A fast-tempo instrumental version of the song by Ted Weems and his Orchestra became a major hit in 1947, topping the Billboard Best Selling Singles chart in the US. Later versions by band leader Harry James and doo-wop group the Marcels were also chart successes. "Heartaches" received renewed attention in the 2010s after several 1930s recordings of the song, including a version by Al Bowlly with Sid Phillips & his Melodians, were sampled in the Caretaker's album Everywhere at the End of Time.
