On this day in music history: November 21, 1960 - “Stay” by Maurice Williams & The Zodiacs hits #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for 1 week. Originally written by Williams in 1953 when he was only 15 years old, the song will be recorded in a converted radio studio in Columbia, SC. Clocking in at one minute and thirty-seven seconds, it will also make history as the shortest record to ever hit #1 on the Billboard singles chart. The song will be covered numerous times, included charted versions by The Four Seasons and Jackson Browne.

I fly a starship across the Universe divide
And when I reach the other side
I’ll find a place to rest my spirit if I can
Perhaps I may become a highwayman again
Or I may simply be a single drop of rain
But I will remain
And I’ll be back again, and again and again and again and again..
