A few versions of "Rose Rose I love you", I believe the first is karaoke followed by Gordon Jenkins and then, Petula Clark before she became really popular.

"Rose, Rose I love you" was originally a big hit in China in Chinese at least from around 1940, maybe more of a history than that, then, it eventually made its way around the world.

SUNDAY, 3 December 2017 Music Thread...All Music Is Welcomed

https://www.onthisday.com/music/birthdays/december/3
http://www.thisdayinmusic.com/born_today

We'll look at a few birthdays today, it seems appropos for the Christmas season that today is a birthday of someone fairly well known for singing Christmas songs along with many others.

That being Andy Williams, here singing "Happy Holidays" and next, "Moon River".
! No longer available
! No longer available

And Andy Williams also did "Cant' Get Use To Losing You", another big hit. In fact, it was on this forum, that song was posted of it being performed by a modern band and I pointed out that AW also sang it decades ago.
! No longer available

Then, at the other end of the spectrum, it is Ozzie Osbourne's birthday as well. - Crazy Train
! No longer available

Mickey Thomas, singer for Jefferson Airplane/Starship, "Ride the Tiger" with Starship. More of an album cut for me but good.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBtIbaFAVTg

Nicky Stevens, Brotherhood of Man with 'United we stand'. People may know or not know this song, I think it was bigger in the UK but pretty good.
! No longer available

Don Barnes of 38 Special, "Rockin' in to the night"
! No longer available

And finally, Duane Roland of Molly Hatchet and their well known classic rock song, "Flirtin' with disaster".
! No longer available

The drummer of "Taste" has a birthday as well, that was Rory Gallagher's group prior to going solo.

So, a pretty big platter today.

My 'Viking Hunter' High Adventure Alternate History Series is FREE, ALL 3 volumes, at most ebook retailers including Ibooks, Barnes and Noble, Kobo, and more.

In Vol 2 the weapons come out in a winner take all war on two fronts.

Vol 3 opens with the rigged murder trial of the villain in a Viking Court under Viking law to set the stage for the hero's own murder trial.

Johnny Hallyday, French rock and roll icon passed away, perhaps the "French Elvis", he was 74 years old, sold over 100,000,000 records. One article said his songs were largely "derivative" of rock and roll in the English language. I think that describes it pretty well. I've heard some of his songs.
