Prior to their arrival at Clacton, the group had cut their first demo-disc in a recording booth in Oxford Street, London, thanks to the promotional efforts of Johnny Foster and a loan of £10 from his mother. The song called 'Move It', written by Ian Samwell, was to be the start of something much bigger for Cliff and the boys. Their recording had been heard by the right people, and arrangements were made for them to appear in the original 'Oh Boy' show. This virtually ended their Butlin engagement and it was mutually agreed that their contract should be terminated. Almost immediately 'Move It' was released by Columbia Records and went to number two in the charts.
To dispel any rumours, Hank Marvin and Bruce Welch were never at Butlin's. They were hired later by Cliff when, or at about the time the name was changed to Cliff Richard & the Shadows.

Cliff Richard & The Drifters Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Fall in love, fall in love, fall in love with you
Fall in love, fall in love, fall in love with you
Falling in love again, falling in love again
Why couldn't I, why shouldn't I fall in love with you
Why must you lead your heart and keep we two apart
Why couldn't I, why shouldn't I fall in love with you
Don't tell me, I know
Its late, our date
Is almost over, its time to go
Please, give me one more chance, this is my first romance
Why couldn't I, why shouldn't I fall in love with you
(Fall, Fall, Fall)
Don't tell me, I know
Its late, our date
Is almost over, its time to go
Please, give me one more chance, this is my first romance
Why couldn't I, why shouldn't I fall in love with you
