B '(There`ll Be Bluebirds Over) The White Cliffs of Dover' is one of the most
famous of all the World War II era pop classics. It became a sensational hit in
1942, as it reflected the feelings of all the Allies towards the British people in their
brave fight against Nazi Germany. Pilots flying to Germany from the airfields in
south England would know that they had made it home safely when they saw the
white cliffs of Dover, so this sight had a special significance at that time.
Originally the song was released in the U.S. by bandleader Kay Kyser. The most
well known version of the song is probably the one recorded by Vera Lynn in
1942. Vera Lynn was one of Britain’s leading entertainers during the war and kept
up the spirits of the public when times were difficult.
