White Cliffs of Dover VERA LYNN (with lyrics)

Long before we ever published a "hit parade" in Britain, forces sweetheart Vera Lynn was a top favourite, keeping the spirits of the British public high with her positive songs like "We&Meet Again" (1939) and "The White Cliffs of Dover" (1942). Her popularity continued after World War II - in fact, in 2009 at age 92, she became the oldest living person to top the UK albums chart and in 2017 (to mark her 100th year) she became the first centenarian to have an album in the charts (it peaked at #3).
