Kurz-Bio:
Der britische Schlagersänger Michael Holliday wurde am 26. November 1924 in Liverpool, England, als Norman Miller geboren (er ließ sich seinen zivilen Namen später amtlich auf Norman Alexander Milne ändern) und verstarb am 29. Oktober 1963, erst 38-jährig, in Croydon, England, an einer Überdosis Schlaftabletten. Er diente nach der Schule bei der Handelsmarine, wo er den Pianisten Trevor Stanford, der später als Russ Conway bekannt wurde, kennenlernte und mit ihm gemeinsam während des 2. WK auftrat. Als er bei einem Gesangswettbewerb den ersten Preis gewann, entschied er sich für den Beruf des Pop-Sängers und 1955 verschaffte ihm Norrie Paramor einen Plattenvertrag bei COLUMBIA.
