This was his first double-sided hit on the R&B-charts.
"Poor Me" entered the Billboard R&B-charts on November 26, 1955 and reached POS. #1 for 1 week. "Poor Me" stayed 12 weeks on the charts. The "stop-and-go" song, first succesful on "Ain't It A Shame" strangely didn't hit the POP-charts.
"I Can't Go On" (aka "Rosaly") entered the Billboard charts on December 3, 1955, reaching POS. 6. It stayed for 5 weeks on the charts.
