In early 1965 Petula Clark co-wrote You're The One with her songwriter/producer Tony Hatch...

The Vogues covered the song later that year.  It reached #4 in the United States that autumn...

After reaching #1 on the Billboard Chart in the US in January 1965 with Downtown, Pet Clark reached #1 with My Love in February 1966, thus making her the first British female to have two #1 hits in the United States...

In 1965's I Know A Place, Petula Clark directly refers to the Cavern Club and Brian Epstein's autobiography "A Cellar Full Of Noise" published the year before...

Downtown is one of my favourite songs of that year, I think. Does anyone know who wrote it? It sounds very Burt Bacharah-ish to me. I'd Google it but now I don't want to prove myself wrong.

Right, Ahme.

Mairi, amongst the songs Tony Hatch wrote for Petula Clark are Downtown, I Know A Place, My Love, A Sign Of The Times, Color My World, I Couldn't Live Without Your Love and Don't Sleep In The Subway.  Tony Hatch and Petula Clark are the British equivalent of Burt Bacharach and Dionne Warwick.

I guess I never looked at this thread before, Barry. I don’t know why; I remember her on the radio when I was little and I’ve always loved her songs. That video you posted eight years to start the thread is so sweet! I had no idea she was a child star.
