La canzone
La canzone parla di due indiani che si amano ma che non possono perché fanno parte di due tribù rivali. La canzone non solo raggiunse nel 1960 le prime posizioni americane (Billboard Hot 100) per tre settimane ed inglesi (Official Singles Chart) per due settimane e la seconda in Norvegia ma fu premiata come miglior singolo del 1960 dal 23 al 30 gennaio da Cash Box[1].

"Running Bear" is a teenage tragedy song written by Jiles Perry Richardson (a.k.a. The Big Bopper) and sung most famously by Johnny Preston in 1959.[1] The 1959 recording featured background vocals by George Jones and the session's producer Bill Hall, who provided the "Indian chanting" of "uga-uga" during the three verses, as well as the "Indian war cries" at the start and end of the record. It was No. 1 for three weeks in January 1960 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States. The song also reached No. 1 in the UK Singles Chart and New Zealand[2] in 1960.[1] Coincidentally, "Running Bear" was immediately preceded in the Hot 100 No. 1 position by Marty Robbins' "El Paso", and immediately followed by Mark Dinning's "Teen Angel", both of which feature a death of, or affecting, the protagonist. Billboard ranked "Running Bear" as the No. 4 song of 1960.[3] The tenor saxophone was played by Link Davis.[4]- [it] Running Bear
