Initially influenced by cowboy singers such as Gene Autry, Arnold charted 28 number one hits and has sold over 85 million records. His top recordings include "I'll Hold You in My Heart (Till I Can Hold You in My Arms)" (21 weeks at number one), "Bouquet of Roses (19 weeks at the top of the charts), "What's He Doing in My World?" and "Make the World Go Away".

After running away from an orphanage in Tennessee, he ended up hitchhiking between Mississippi and New Mexico with his uncle who taught him to play guitar. He moved to Nashville in 1960 and played at bars where he was instrumental in encouraging others to look at Willie Nelson. Although he released five albums in his own voice between 1963 and 1980, Cochran was best known as a country songwriter. He wrote two of Patsy Cline's biggest hits: "I Fall To Pieces" and "She's Got You". Ray Price and Eddie Arnold both hit with "Make the World Go Away" and Burl Ives' Cochran hits include "A Little Bitty Tear".
