Broken Wings (1953 song)

Broken Wings (1953 song)

"Broken Wings" is a popular song, which was written by John Jerome and Bernard Gunn.

Probably the best known version of the song was produced by Dick Rowe and recorded in the UK by The Stargazers in 1953. It gave the group the first of two number one hits on the UK chart, their second being I See the Moon a year later.

Two other versions also entered the UK charts in February 1953, one by Art and Dotty Todd (peaking at number 6) and one by Dickie Valentine (reaching number 12).
