"Cherry Pink And Apple Blossom White" is the furious version of the song "Cerisiers Roses Et Pommiers Blancs", a popular song, written in 1950 by French musician Louiguy. French lyrics by Jacques Larue and English lyrics by Mack David both exist, and recordings of both have been quite popular. But Perez Prado's recording of the song as an instrumental with his orchestra featuring trumpeter Billy Regis, whose trumpet slides down and up before the melody would resume, was the most popular version. It was first recorded and released in Mexico in 1953, becoming one of the biggest hits of that year in Mexico. Two years later it was a global smash, even the biggest hit of the year 1955 worldwide with a total of 8,021,000 points.
