Amy, Wonderful Amy

"Amy, Wonderful Amy" is a 1930 popular song, written by Joseph G. Gilbert and composed by Lawrence Wright (some sources credit him under his pseudonym Horatio Nicholls) about British aviator Amy Johnson. It was recorded by Jack Hylton and his orchestra on 2 June 1930, with J. Pat O'Malley providing vocals, and released on HMV B-5836. The banjo and ukulele arrangement was provided by Alvin Keech. While at least ten songs were written about her at the time, "Amy Wonderful Amy" is the most famous.
