I own two 1962 commercial 45s for this song, both confirmed as Cameo
212. Both copies have listed times of (2:27), and both have actual run
times of (2:30). Deadwax info:

-one copy has a handwritten "C 212-A-6", and features bolder print and
heavier vinyl than the other copy does.

-the other has a machine-stamped "N8 - OW5434--1", followed by a
handwritten "C 212A".

FYI, original recordings of this song currently in the db have run times
ranging between (2:26) and (2:30).
