Running Bear by Johnny Preston. I knew the UK one (Adam Faith, dreadful song!) but didn't think to look up the US before.

It must have been popular for a while, because I remember my mother singing it around the house.

According to that site it was "Hard-Headed Woman" by Elvis Presley. But that was in the USA. In the UK (where I was at the time ), it was "All I Have To Do Is Dream/Claudette" by The Everly Brothers. All great songs.

PurpleFan, mine is Perry Como's "If" also, and I too, have never heard of it. Does that mean we have the same birthday? March 24th here.

Can't say I know it, but now that I look it up on youtube it sounds like something i could find myself listening to.

The answer here may be that you are looking at different sites , as there is a British and a US one.

"My Dreams Are Getting Better All The Time" by Les Brown. I can't say I've heard of it, but I'm reassured: it could so easily have been some frightful guff by Vera Lynn.
