[MILLAR]

I presume there were no 'charts' in 1945 but I'd like to know what the popular hits/singers were around 21st July 1945 as I am preparing a retirement speech for a colleague at work !

Johnny Mercer - 'On the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe' is recorded as being the most popular song on 22 July 1945. Pretty close!

Perry Como recorded (Did You Ever Get) That Feeling In The Moonlight in July 1945
