AND She's Probably a Whore

Rarely have the Beatles ever exhibited anything other than exquisite timing, yet they've hit a snag with their re-masted album s being knocked out of the #1 spot thanks to the release We'll Meet Again - The Very Best of Vera Lynn, who is apparently a 118 year-old lady.
During the war, Lynn was known as the "Forces' Sweetheart" for hits such as "The White Cliffs of Dover" which struck a chord with British soldiers fighting overseas and audiences at home.

Ironically, whenever I personally think of this song, I think of one thing: Ringo saying his mother joked that his birth caused World War II in the beginning of The Beatles Anthology (just under 4 minutes in.) Hmm.
