"El Último Beso" es una adaptación de la canción "Last Kiss", escrita por Wayne Cochran en 1962 e interpretada originalmente por Wayne Cochran & the C.C. Riders. Esta primera versión tuvo poco éxito. Cochran basó la canción en un accidente de tránsito (del que fue testigo), donde fallecieron tres parejas de adolescentes. El accidente ocurrió en una autopista cerca del lugar donde éste vivía.
En 1964, J. Frank Wilson, junto a los Cavaliers, realizó su propia versión, que alcanzó el Número 2 de los rankings.
Casi a fines de la década de los 60's, la banda peruana "Los Doltons" hicieron su propia adaptación, pero esta vez en español. Alcanzaron el Número Uno en
las radios peruanas de ese entonces.
Dos años después de este éxito, el cantante colombiano Alci Acosta hizo otra versión, siendo también un éxito en su país.
