Vera Lynn’s "Auf Wiederseh'n Sweetheart" was the first song recorded by a foreign artist to reach the top spot on a US Billboard chart, peaking at #1 in July of 1952 on Billboard’s Best Sellers in Stores chart (1 of the 4 pre-Hot 100 era primary charts at the time…). #VeraLynn #OneHitWondered
British singer Vera Lynn
Interestingly, Mr. Acker Bilk was the first British artist to have a #1 hit single during the US #Billboard #Hot100 era, beating The Beatles to that honor… but wasn’t the first Brit to have a #1 hit in the US. That title belongs to Vera Lynn. #MrAckerBilk #VeraLynn #OneHitWondered
109 jaar geleden werd #VeraLynn geboren. Zij wordt vooral herinnerd als de zangeres van dit lied vol hoop in oorlogstijden. Misschien kunnen we er ook in deze onzekere tijden hoop uit puren. Zelf werd ze 103 jaar oud. ❤️
