i know that the second best selling song of all time is i'm dreaming of a white christmas by that bloke but whats the first?

[Headtime]

Quite a few websites point to "Candle in the Wind" (the Diana's dead English Rose version), by Elton John.

This is also confirmed by the Encyclopedia Britannica;

Hmm... not quite sure of the accuracy of that link, headtime.

"1997....would be remembered for the tragic, untimely death of Diana, princess of Wales..."

Who said anything about 'tragic' and 'untimely'?

[sydmayne]

Generally accepted that Happy Birthday To You is the top song of all time. But maybe not the best selling song.

[Alan2]

who sings that one then?

[sydmayne]

Everyone
