"Remember (Walking in the Sand)" is a song written by Shadow Morton. In 1964, the song was released as the debut single by girl group The Shangri-Las. It proved very successful for them, becoming a top ten hit on the Billboard Hot 100, as well as a top twenty hit on the UK Singles Chart.
In 1979, Louise Goffin remade the song and released it as a single. This version also became popular, charting in the top fifty of the Hot 100.
Aerosmith released a more rock-oriented version of the song as a single in 1980 from their album Night in the Ruts. This version also charted on the Hot 100, though it did not achieve the success of the other two.
Other artists to release versions include Mouth & MacNeal (on their 1972 album How Do You Do?), The Nylons, and The Beach Boys (on their 1992 album Summer in Paradise).
