"Will You (Still) Love Me Tomorrow" was recorded in 1960 by the Shirelles, who took their single to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. It was written by husband and wife songwriting team of Gerry Goffin and Carole King. The song has been noted for being the first song by an all-female group to reach #1 one the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 since the chart debuted in 1958. It is a benignly sexual song that met with some resistance from radio stations back then, but not enough to stop it from becoming a huge hit and selling over a million copies. Though the song was originally composed with a "country-western" style, strings and an up-beat tempo were added to fit the Shirelles style. It was ranked as the 162nd greatest song of all time, and the best song of 1960. The Shirelles recording was ranked among Rolling Stone 's list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time at number 126, and have been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1996.
