Recording information by AlRichardGOLD

"Now is the hour"
I was very pleased when I found that this old World War 2 song was available on Singsnap. I t was very popular during and following WW2. It was sung and made popular by that Grand British Lady, Vera Lynn. She sang all the WW2 songs including "The white cliffs of Dover". During the post war years, she made several trips to Canada to sing to gathering of veterans, who loved her dearly.

Karaa oh im outa here! i think im the only one with sucky sound

Hiya Al...You did a lovely job singing this beautiful tune. I'm a bit too young to associate it with WW2 but I remember hearing the song...remember I have 4 older sisters lol.
Al, I tried to sing this with you but SS won't let me because Im no longer Gold. I let it go until after my surgery. Doc said 4 mo. recovery time so don't know if I'll be able to come on or not.
