Kander and Ebb performed the song for Nick Vanoff, one of the producers of the show, who liked the song but felt the material needed a singer other than Ballard. Stewart's single of the work, made for Colpix Records, was paired with "I Heard You Cry Last Night" as a b-side.Kallen's single sold very well, and by January 12, 1963, her version and Stewart's version were closely matched on the Billboard Hot 100 with Kallen placing 13th and Stewart placing 14th on the chart. The producers of The Perry Como Kraft Music Hall had Sandy Stewart perform the premiere of the song on the October 31, 1962 broadcast of the television program. While not originally written for one of their musicals, the song was included in the Off-Broadway musical revue And the World Goes ‘Round: The Songs of Kander and Ebb in 1991. Stewart's version was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Solo Vocal Performance, Female in 1963.

Record labels and performing artists quickly lobbied Kander and Ebb for the right to record and perform the song, resulting in multiple different single recording releases in 1962. The King's Singers recorded it for their 1972 album The King's Singers Collection; reissued on the 2005 CD, Colouring Book.Many other artists have recorded and performed the song in succeeding decades, most recently Kristin Chenoweth in 2014. She made a different recording of the work on her 1963 album, The Second Barbra Streisand Album, which was a critical success and has enjoyed enduring popularity. Stewart's single charted in the top 20, and so did another 1962 single version of the song recorded by Kitty Kallen. Chakiris's single was paired with the song "I've Got Your Number" as a b side and was made with Capitol Records. Her version was arranged and conducted by Robert Mersey, the song was released as Barbra Streisand's second single release in November 1962, as a double single with " Lover, Come Back To Me".

Stewart's recording of the song was nominated for the 1963 Grammy Award for Best Solo Vocal Performance, Female and Kander and Ebb were nominated for the 1963 Grammy Award for Song of the Year. Record sales of her single were boosted considerably by several more performances of the song on television, including The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson and The Merv Griffin Show.

This 1962 version was re-released as a single in March 1965 as part of the "Hall of Fame" series with the 1962 recording of " Happy Days Are Here Again". The producers were not open to having Ballard sing the song because they felt she was a comedian and not a singer who could effectively deliver more serious material. Ballard brought the song to the producers of the television show The Perry Como Kraft Music Hall with whom she was a regular performer. First performed by Sandy Stewart in 1962 on the television program The Perry Como Kraft Music Hall, she was one of the first artists to record the work in 1962 when it was released as a single.
