Perry Como Facts
One of the most popular male vocalists of all time, his list of hit records, over a 30 year period, is testament to his durability. His many hits include: "Till the End of Time," "Temptation," "Prisoner of Love," "Because," "When You Were Sweet Sixteen," "Wanted," "No Other Love," "Hot Diggety," "(There's No Place Like) Home For the Holidays," "Round and Round," "Catch a Falling Star," "Delaware," "Seattle," "It's Impossible" and "And I Love You So."

Days after his death, columnist William F. Buckley wrote a column describing a past act of Como kindness when he gave Buckley's mother a jeweled brooch of his (when she needed a pin to repair an outfit) on board a plane. [May 2001]

In December 2006, his 1946 recording of "Jingle Bells" topped Billboard magazine's Hot Ringtones chart - five years after he died.
