More on Here in My Heart
Description from Wikipedia:
"Here in My Heart" is a popular song, written by Pat Genaro, Lou Levinson, and Bill Borrelli, and published in 1952.
A recording of the song by Al Martino was a #1 hit single on what was to become known as the United States Billboard Hot 100 chart. The Martino version also made history as the first number one on the UK Singles Chart, on 14 November 1952. "Here in My Heart" remained in the top position for nine weeks in the United Kingdom, setting up a record for the longest consecutive run at number one, which over half a century on, has only been beaten by four other tracks ("I Believe" (11 weeks), "Cara Mia" (10), "(Everything I Do) I Do It for You" (16) and "Love Is All Around" (15)).
By staying at number one until 1953 in the UK, Martino secured for himself for all time the record of being the only performer to have a number one hit in the entire year of 1952. Needless to say, no subsequent act has ever dominated the top spot so entirely in any later year.
Other versions, recorded by Vic Damone (reaching #8 on the Billboard chart), and Tony Bennett (reaching #15 on the chart), were also recorded around the same time. A rhythm and blues version was also recorded that year, by Wini Brown and her Boy Friends. Mario Lanza had also planned to record this song, but changed his mind when asked to by Martino so his own recording would not be neglected.
In 1961, Martino re-recorded the song, although it only reached #86 on the Billboard chart.
In 1963, Richard Harris performed this song in the film This Sporting Life, although he would not release his first album until four years later, with 1967's Camelot.
