"Crying My Heart Out for You" (not to be confused with the Ricky Skaggs song " Crying My Heart Out Over You") was the third single of Neil Sedaka immediately following the success of his debut single " The Diary" and follow-up single " I Go Ape." The hit written by Neil Sedaka was released in 1959 reaching No. 111 on the US Billboard Chart. [1] It was more successful in Italy, where the record hit No. 6. The record's commercial failure nearly prompted RCA Records to drop Sedaka from its roster; after Sedaka begged the company for a second chance, he took the opportunity to analyze the popular music of the day and wrote " Oh! Carol," beginning a five-year string of hit singles that would continue until the British Invasion. [2]
