"Mull of Kintyre"
is a song by the British rock band Wings written by Paul McCartney and Denny Laine. The song was written in tribute to the picturesque Kintyre peninsula in Scotland and its headland, the Mull of Kintyre, where McCartney has owned High Park Farm since 1966. The song was Wings' biggest hit in Britain where it became the 1977 Christmas number one, and was the first single to sell over two million copies nationwide.

..." HELLO, DOLLY! " - Louis Armstrong. Louis" version if the title song if the Jerry Herman Broadway musical that Carol Channing (RIP) created the title role in was #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 the week of May 9, 1964.
