 "It Doesn't Matter Anymore" was Holly's last US Top 20 hit and featured the orchestral backing of Dick Jacobs.

 Paul Anka wrote it specifically for Holly.
 He donated his royalties from the song to Holly's wife.
 He said: "'It Doesn't Matter Anymore' has a tragic irony about it now, but at least it will help look after Buddy Holly's family.
 I'm giving my composer's royalty to his widow - it's the least I can do."
