The only one I liked was the re-vamp "Little less conversation".

I'm converting to Aerosmith and Ozzy!

Gadget, about the same year as me then, all I can find for Aug 1947 is Smoke! Smoke! Smoke! (That cigarette) by Tex Williams.

I say to all the young ones, I may be old but I haven't got as long left to work as you have, and my mortgage is sorted.
There are advantages to being mature in years!

Tex Williams died of Cancer in 1985, ciggies did'nt do him much good.

Difficult to discover a top of the chart for August 8th 1946, but Route 66 by Nat King Cole looks to be close.

I was born in 1941, suppose it must have been something by Vera Lynne or Flannagan & Allan - anybody any ideas?

The charts didn't start till 1952 - the first #1 was Here In My Heart by Al Martino. It got to #1 on November 14 and was there for 9 weeks!
