Suddenly There's a Valley

Suddenly There's a Valley

"Suddenly There's a Valley" is a popular song.

It was written by Chuck Meyer and Biff Jones.

The song was a major hit for Gogi Grant (one of only 2 major ones she had, and one of only 3 that charted at all for her) in 1955. Her recording was issued by Era Records as catalog number 1003 and reached Billboard magazine's Top 10. The song was also recorded by Jo Stafford (Columbia Records catalog number 40559) and Julius La Rosa (Cadence Records catalog number 1270). On the Cash Box Best-Selling Record chart, where all versions were combined, the song reached #8. The Mills Brothers also hit the Billboard Top 100 with their version, not listed as a best-seller by Cashbox. It was also sung by the Drifters in 1960.

In the United Kingdom, a version by Petula Clark became a Top Ten Hit.

A German version was recorded on December 1, 1955 by Vera Lynn under the title "Folge dem Rat deines Herzens (Follow your heart's advice)" and was released in early 1956 on Decca Single D 18 172.

In 1964 the famous band The Kingsmen used the song on a gospel album under the same name.
