Dion是歷年暢銷歌星排行榜第77名的1960年代巨星，本名Dion DiMucci，1939年出生於紐約Bronx，他早期以Dion＆The Belmonts及後來個人演唱生涯有11首排行榜Top 10的暢銷曲，除了前面提及的Runaround Sue是1961年的2週冠軍曲，The Wanderer是1961年第2名的歌，另外一首1968年獲得過第4名的Abraham，Martin And John則是Dion非常有名的歌，這首歌是Richard Holler向美國四位遇刺身亡的政治人物Abraham Lincoln、Martin Luther King及John 與Robert Kennedy致敬所寫的歌。
1981年以後Dion棄流行歌改唱基督教歌曲。
Abraham, Martin, and John
-Words and Music by Richard Holler
Anybody here seen my old friend Abraham?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed lotta people but it seems the good they die young
You know I just looked around and he's gone
Anybody here seen my old friend John?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed lotta people but it seems the good they die young
I just looked around and he's gone
Anybody here seen my old friend Martin?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed lotta people but it seems the good they die young
I just looked around and he's gone
Didn't you love the things that they stood for?
Didn't they try to find some good for you and me?
And we'll be free
Some day soon, it's gonna be one day
Anybody here seen my old friend Bobby?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
I thought I saw him walkin' up over the hill
With Abraham, Martin, and John
