Glendora (song)

"Glendora" is a popular song written by Ray Stanley and published in 1956. It was recorded on May 8, 1956 by Perry Como. It was released by RCA Victor in the United States (catalog number 20-6554 on 78rpm, 47-6554 on 45rpm) and by RCA in France (catalog number 45-326); it was released in the United Kingdom by HMV (catalog number POP-240).

The flip side of the US and UK releases is "More." The French release's flip side is "Mandolins in the Moonlight." The song reached #8 on the US charts and #18 on the UK charts.

"Glendora" was re-released by RCA Victor as a single in the "Gold Standard" series (catalog numbers 420-0817 and 447-0817), backed with "More." It has been included on albums "Como-Tion" (an extended play album released in 1960) and "Love Makes the World Go 'Round" (an LP released in 1964).

The song was later recorded by the Downliners Sect in 1966, and the Slickee Boys in 1979.
