Sam Cooke's "Cupid," released on May 16, 1961, is a classic that showcases his smooth vocals and knack for blending genres. Sam Cooke wrote the song himself, and it was produced by Hugo & Luigi. The track reached number 17 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number 20 on the Hot R&B Sides chart in the U.S., while peaking at number 7 on the UK Singles Chart. In "Cupid," Sam Cooke appeals to the Roman god of love to help him win the heart of his desired woman, capturing the innocence and hope of young love. The song blends Latin, R&B, jazz, and mainstream pop elements, creating a catchy melody with heartfelt lyrics. Initially, Sam Cooke's producers intended the song for a young singer they saw on a Perry Como TV show, but after hearing her perform, they decided to keep "Cupid" for Sam Cooke himself. Over the years, "Cupid" has been covered by various artists, including Johnny Nash, Tony Orlando and Dawn, The Spinners, and Amy Winehouse, attesting to its enduring appeal. Rolling Stone ranked it number 452 in their "500 Greatest Songs of All Time" list in 2004.
