Julie Rogers - The Wedding (1964) 4K

Julie Rogers performing “The Wedding“, released originally in 1964. It reached #1 in US Adult Contemporary, #1 in Australian Charts, #2 in Netherlands Top Singles, #3 in UK Singles Chart, and #10 in US Billboard Hot 100. “The Wedding“, sometimes credited as “The Wedding (La Novia)“, is a popular song by Joaquin Prieto recorded by British singer Julie Rogers. When Joaquin Prieto wrote the song La Novia in 1961, it quickly became popular with singers in continental Europe. After Britain’s Julie Rogers recorded the title with an English lyric in 1964, the song, now known as The wedding, became an even bigger hit worldwide – and launched Julie into pop stardom. It was her second disc, The wedding, released in July 1964, that sealed her success. Julie herself had suggested the number, originally recorded by Argentinean Joaquin Prieto, as it was one she remembered fondly from her time in Spain. She recorded the song and took it to number three in the UK, into the top ten in the US and to number one in the Australian charts. In the spring of 1965 she also reached number 16 in the German charts with the song – and went on to record a German version, Glocken der Liebe. (The German follow up, Morgen bist du so weit von mir, an original composition also issued in 1965, proved her last brush with the language of Goethe.) To date, The wedding has sold in the region of 15 million copies. The flipside, the terrific The love of a boy, was penned by Bacharach and David, and had originally been recorded by Timi Yuro. Julie soon became a well-known face on television. Her stunning looks, bouffant auburn hair and powerful singing voice ensured she was a popular guest star on every major TV show of the day.
