"Will You Love Me Tomorrow" is the title of a song written by Gerry Goffin and Carole King. It has been recorded by many different artists and was ranked among Rolling Stone's list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time at #125.

The Shirelles' version

In 1960, The Shirelles released their version as Scepter single 1211, with "Boys" on the B-side. When first presented with the song, lead singer Shirley Owens (later known as Shirley Allston-Reeves) did not want to record it, because she thought it was "too country." She relented after a string arrangement was added. In 1961, the song went to number one on the Billboard Hot 100. However, Owens recalled on Jim Parsons' syndicated oldies radio program, Shake Rattle Showtime, that some radio stations had banned the record because they had felt the lyrics were too sexually charged. The song was used on the Dirty Dancing Soundtrack from 1987.
