The Drifters Memories Are Made of This (1966)

Dean Martin had a big hit with this song back in 1955, but I’m partial to this version, as the arrangement by Artie Butler and production by Bert Berns is just so fantastic.  

On the more topical side of things, this song became an unofficial anthem for refugees after the 1956 Hungarian Revolution, adapted into Honvágy-dal, or The Song of Homesickness
