TomSea:
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.

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".

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.

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

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.

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