My Choice 255 - Julie Rogers: The Wedding

Julie Rogers, sings "The Wedding" a beautiful song originally sung in Italian by Domenico Modugno under the title "La Novia".

Julie is the youngest of five children. She worked as a dancer in Spain, a secretary in England, and a stewardess on a Union-Castle Line ship, before singing with the Teddy Foster orchestra, with whom she toured the UK and America.

Her 1964 hit "The Wedding" went to #3 in the UK Singles Chart, #1 in Australia and #10 in the U.S., in addition to topping the U.S. Adult Contemporary chart. In 1961 "The Wedding" had been successful for Anita Bryant and Malcolm Vaughan, but Rogers' recording outsold them both. At the time of the release of "The Wedding", Rogers told the NME that she wanted to become an international artist. "The Wedding" was estimated by 1972 to have sold over seven million copies.
