"If My Pillow Could Talk" was written by Jimmy Steward, Jr. of the Ravens and Bob Mosley,[1] and was a hit single for Connie Francis.
"If My Pillow Could Talk" was recorded in New York City on March 22, 1963 in a session conducted and arranged by Marty Manning best known for his work with Tony Bennett.
The US B-side of "If My Pillow Could Talk": "You're the Only One Can Hurt Me", was replaced for the single's UK release by "Lollypop Lips" a Stan Vincent and Hank Hunter composition that has gained an unfortunate significance in the Connie Francis canon by virtue of its appearance during an oral sex scene in the 1999 film Jawbreaker which motivated Francis to sue the film's producers.
Francis then also sued Universal Music Group (UMG) which had inherited the MGM catalog for allowing her songs to be used in Jawbreaker plus the earlier films Postcards From America and The Craft.
[4] In Cash Box "If My Pillow Could Talk" reached #16 a peak matched by only one of Francis' subsequent chartings: "Blue Winter" in 1964 (#24 in Billboard).
