Wonderful. I was born in 1954, but these were the songs of my childhood. I've loved much music throughout my life, but nothing beats this. I was an history teacher and used to play this music to the 13-14 year olds studying the SWW, and it never ceased to amaze me how much it "spoke" to young people. I had some playing in my classroom during an open evening one year. I hadn't realised that I was joining in until I turned round and saw a group of pupils and visitors listening to me.

[@johncarron9389]

I was born in 1935, and living in London. I remember virtually living in a very small air raid shelter, and the only contact with the outside World was listening to a radio. Dame Vera Lynn would sing the songs that everyone would listen to.I remember being on my knees with my Mother ,and saying a prayer every night. We constantly had bombs falling all around us.That was how we knew whether it was daytime or nighttime, as the bombing was just constant at night. Vera Lynn was such a great person to listen to, and made life a lot more bearable for everyone during those very frightful times. Many years later my wife and I had the pleasure of attending a show and saw her in person. The show was in Wimbledon, and it started at midnight, and so she performed around 1.30 in the morning.!!!. I have no idea who the other people were that performed that night, but I still remember every note of her performance. Every time that I hear her, as many of you have stated, at age six I cried with my mother, and two other folks that shared the shelter.I have often thought since that she should have sung “ Cry me a river” because she certainly caused plenty of them. Thank you Dame Vera Lynn.

Dame Vera is a true blessing in our lives. And a tip of the hat to the dancers and singers in this video. They did their job while not overshadowing Vera. I hope we 'meet again'' in Heaven.
