    		How about 'O Sole mio' and 'Return to Sender'?

    Oh! Sorry! 'It's Now or Never' of course. And is the popular name of this Nealopitan love song 'Just one Cornetto'?

    		That's better, Maggie. I knew you knew. The 1902 song by DiCapua was the hit for Caruso that really launched the recording industry while the other was Elvis's song that was the bigget hit of 1960.
    I meant Neapolitan Serenade but can't deny that the name "Just one Cornetto" is also popular!

Over 2,000 years after his death, he was commemorated in the title of a new piece of music, the tune of which is now familiar to every U.S. citizen on the planet and to many other people as well. Who was the poet, and what song uses that tune?
