Anka wrote his first #1 hit..."Diana"... when he was about 16 YO.
I guess he was the Justin Bieber of the day. :)
I was there and I loved him and his music!...and Elvis, also.
Come to think of it, I don't remember much from Elvis during that time. I bet Elvis was in the army.
Just 14. Definitely the Bieber of his day.
