2nd July, 1954 (10 weeks)
And after poor old Johnnie Ray, it's back to a more familiar sounding style now.
David Whitfield & Mantovani - both previous chart-toppers in their own rights - combined like pre-rock n roll Power Rangers to create the first UK number 1 single to top the charts consecutively for 10 weeks. 6 And only the third artists to achieve the coveted Gold Single for single sales.
As I posted on his last number 1, I really can't stand David Whitfield's voice. It's like pouring acid down your ears. Though his diet opera style matches Mantovani's light orchestra style. I won't deny that much.
