His career in music began after he won an amateur talent contest in his hometown of Liverpool and again when he was in the USA. After this he was inspired to seek a career in show business. In 1951, he secured two summer seasons’ work as a vocalist with Dick Denny’s band at Butlin’s Holiday Camp, North Wales.

He made his first TV appearance in July 1955. This TV performance was seen by Norrie Paramor, then head of A&R for EMI’s Columbia record label, who signed him as a solo artist.

It is said that Holliday’s style of singing was influenced by Bing Crosby and he earned himself the title of “the British Bing Crosby”.

The Story Of My Life

Lyrics

Someday I’m gonna to write
The story of my life
I’ll tell about the night we met
And how my heart can’t forget
The way you smiled at me

I liked the world to know
The story of my life
The moment when your lips met mine
And that first exciting time
I held you close to me

The sorrow in our love was breakin’ up
The memory of a broken heart
An’ later on, the joy of makin’ up
Never, never more to part

There’s one thing left to do
Before my story’s through
I’ve got to take you for my wife
So the story of my life
Can start and end with you

The sorrow in our love was breakin’ up
The memory of a broken heart
An’ later on, the joy of makin’ up
Never, never more to part

There’s one thing left to do
Before my story’s through
I’ve got to take you for my wife
So the story of my life

Can start and end … with you
