Not only Number 1 for 9 weeks from November 1952 in the UK but the very FIRST number 1 in the record selling charts although not this particular version by Al.You Belong To Me by Jo Stafford followed it up as the 2nd Number 1 , 2 great records to start the chart history !.
I'm now 75 and boy am I glad I was born in 1936, even the wartime evokes times of memorial music, that was music, not only to be listened to, but to dance to.
This song belonged to Al Martino, just like Unforgetable was Nat King Coles Song, this was a time of romance and living, in the big band era.
We had flick knives and threw them at trees, thanks for uploading this music, to repeat this will always be Al Martino's song, and iut surely will be always mine.
@randomcharly : Excellent tune YOU BELONG TO ME ! I now have 6 copies of the Columbia 78 rpm issue and will keep buying them whenever I run across another one.
Extraordinary talent, extraordinary voice. Martino and Eddie Fisher were from the same South Philly neighborhood and roomed together in New York as they tried to break into the biz. Both have sadly passed away within the past year. What a loss.
Awesome Possum!!!! So blessed to have seen him in concert twice back in the 90's. Sometimes I wonder if even he appreciated how wonderful it was to have a full orchestra with a real string section to back him up...wish I had known how to speak (and write) Italian...at the time his music arranger told me he was looking for Italian songs...Tunesmith

this song was very popular the year I was born. It is beautiful. The orchestration is so lost these days. Rarely do we hear something like this.
