The tune went to No. four in the UK Singles Chart. It went all the way to the top in the U.S., however, displacing "You Keep Me Hangin' On" by the Supremes on December 3, 1966. After a one-week run at No. 1, "Winchester Cathedral" was knocked off the summit by the Beach Boys' "Good Vibrations", only to rebound to the top spot the following week. After two additional weeks, it was knocked off the top for good by "I'm a Believer" by The Monkees.

"Winchester Cathedral" topped the Billboard "Easy Listening" chart for four weeks. Cover records by Dana Rollin and The New Happiness reached no higher than No. 70.

The song won the 1966 Grammy Award for 'Best Contemporary Rock & Roll Recording'.

Released as the first single from Holiday, "Tin Man" became the band's fourth top-ten hit in the US, spending three weeks at number four on the Billboard pop chart in November 1974. The song reached number one on the Billboard adult contemporary chart in October of that year.

The song's title and some of the lyrics reference the Tin Woodman from the works of author L. Frank Baum, including his children's novel The Wonderful Wizard of Oz and the subsequent 1939 film The Wizard of Oz. Songwriter Bunnell was quoted describing the parallel: "My favorite movie, I guess. I always loved it as a kid. Very obscure lyrics. Great grammar - 'Oz never did give nothing to the Tin Man.' It's sort of a poetic license."

The song was originally called "Drive Talking". The song's rhythm was modeled after the sound a car would make crossing the bridge from Biscayne Bay into Miami also known as the infamous Rickenbacker Causeway. Note: It was probably NOT the Rickenbacker as that goes from Key Biscayne to Miami, while The Bee Gees live on Miami Beach. The causeways going to and from there would most likely be The MaCarthur Causeway or The Julia Tuttle. The sound of the car's tires were making a "Chicka, Chicka, Chicka," sound, which was used vocally before the group sings the title of the song.[citation needed] Producer Arif Mardin wished to market the song toward the teen market, and suggested the change to "Jive Talkin'" (the phrase "jive talkin'", slang for "telling lies", was a popular colloquialism at the time).[citation needed] Barry Gibb wrote the song and then had to fix the lyrics upon completion because he had assumed "jive talkin'" referred to "speaking in jive", a then-popular term for African-American Vernacular English.[citation needed] All actual "talking jive" references were fixed so they meant "lying".[citation needed]

Upon its release to radio stations, the single was delivered in a plain white cover, with no immediate indication of what the song's name was or who sang it. The DJs would only find out what the song was and who played it when it was placed on the turntable; RSO did provide the song with a label on the record itself. It was the second time in the band's career that this strategy had been employed to get airplay for their music, after a similar tactic had popularized their debut US single New York Mining Disaster 1941 in 1967.

The disco-oriented sound was a departure from the pop ballads the Bee Gees had become known for. The single sold over a million copies in the United States alone, and sold in excess of a hundred thousand copies in Canada. While not a top seller in the United Kingdom, it did mark the first time in three years that a Bee Gees single had charted there.

Two years after its release as a single the song was included on the Bee Gees-dominated soundtrack to Saturday Night Fever.

"The Tracks of My Tears" was written by Miracles members Smokey Robinson (lead vocalist), Pete Moore (bass vocalist), and Marv Tarplin (guitarist).

In the five-LP publication The Motown Story, by Motown Records, Smokey Robinson explained the origin of this song in these words: "Tracks of My Tears" was actually started by Marv Tarplin, who is a young cat who plays guitar for our act. So he had this musical thing - [sings melody] – you know, and we worked around with it, and worked around, and it became "Tracks of My Tears." Tarplin's guitar licks at the songs' intro have become instantly recognizable worldwide.

"The Tracks of My Tears" was a #2 hit on the Billboard magazine R&B singles chart, and it reached #16 on the Billboard Hot 100. Belatedly released in the UK in 1969, "The Tracks of My Tears" became a Top Ten hit that summer reaching #9; a 1987 re-release - as "Tracks of My Tears" - appeared on the UK charts with a #82 peak (both UK releases were credited to Smokey Robinson and the Miracles).

The Miracles can be seen performing "The Tracks of My Tears" on their Motown DVD release "The Definitive Performances (1963–1987)".

Written by Mark James (who also penned Elvis' "Suspicious Minds"), the song became Presley's last No. 1 hit in his lifetime, topping the Billboard magazine Hot Country Singles chart in February 1977. "Moody Blue" also peaked at number thirty-one on the Hot 100. RCA Records also issued an extremely limited quantity of the "Moody Blue" single in an experimental translucent blue vinyl pressing, with "She Thinks I Still Care" as the B-side. Six months after "Moody Blue" topped the chart, Presley was dead.

The song was recorded in February 1976 in the Jungle Room of Presley's Graceland home.
