"Diana" is a song written and first performed by Paul Anka,[1] who recorded it in May 1957 at Don Costa’s studio in New York City. Anka stated in his autobiography that the song was inspired by a girl named Diana Ayoub (13 March 1939 – 1 December 2022),[2] whom he had met at his church and community events, and had developed a crush on.[3][4] Session musicians on the record included George Barnes playing lead guitar, Bucky Pizzarelli playing the "Calypso" riff on guitar, Irving Wexler on piano, Jerry Bruno on bass, and Panama Francis on drums. The song was recorded in May 1957 at RCA Victor Studios in New York.[5] Backup singers included Artie Ripp.[6]

Paul Anka's original 1957 recording reached number 1 (for two weeks) on the Billboard "R&B Best Sellers In Stores" chart,[7] (although it climbed no higher than number 2 on Billboard′s composite "Top 100" chart) and has reportedly sold over nine million copies.[8] "Diana" also hit number one on the R&B Best Sellers chart.[9] It also reached number 1 on the UK's New Musical Express chart, staying there for nine weeks,[10] and sold 1.25 million copies in the UK.[11][12]

After signing with RCA Records, Anka re-recorded "Diana", along with many other hits in 1963, for the album Paul Anka's 21 Golden Hits.[13]
