Written by her then-husband Sonny Bono and released in 1966, the song became one of Cher's biggest-selling singles of the 1960s. Nancy Sinatra recorded one of the best-known covers of the song, for her 1966 album How Does That Grab You? Her version features tremolo guitar, played by her arranger, Billy Strange; and had a resurgence in popularity when it was used in the opening credits of the 2003 Quentin Tarantino film Kill Bill Volume 1.
