Herman's Hermits. Peter Noone and Herman's Hermits took "Can't You Hear My Heartbeat" to the number two position on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 charts in January 1965.

A television commercial. "No Matter What Shape (Your STOMACH's In)", an instrumental recording, reached number three on the U.S. Billboard charts in 1966 for The T-Bones. The music was from a television advertisement for Alka-Seltzer, a popular, widely used upset stomach remedy. An interesting aside to this is that although The T-Bones never enjoyed another recording as successful as this one, they became a popular 1970s group in a re-incarnation of sorts. They were Hamilton, Joe Frank & Reynolds ("Don't Pull Your Love"). By the way, the original Alka-Seltzer commercial is available on YouTube if you'd like a laugh.
