    It was #1 for 10 weeks between May 19 and July 27 1946. I was born May 25th.

    I like it! Perry Como held the #1 spot before and after the Ink Spots.

    I was born May 31, 1944. At that time, Billboard Magazine published a list of "Best Sellers in Stores." Topping the list on my birth date was "I Love You" by Bing Crosby. For those of you interested (Ha!) in the background of this song, here is a brief description from Wikipedia:
