In 1988, Armstrong's recording appeared in the film Good Morning, Vietnam (despite the film being set in 1965 - two years before it was recorded) and was re-released as a single. Tom Jones later broke this record in 2009.
The song made Louis Armstrong the oldest male to top the UK Singles Chart.
However, it was a huge success in the UK, reaching number one and becoming the biggest-selling single of 1968. The song was not initially a hit in America, where it sold less than 1,000 copies because ABC Records head Larry Newton did not like the song and chose not to promote it. lang.Īlthough it became the song most associated with Louis Armstrong, it wasn't indicative of his music, as he didn't play his famous saxophone, and it wasn't in his usual jazz style. However, Bennett went on to cover the song several times, including a 2003 duet with k.d. Louis Armstrong wasn't offered it firstĪlthough Weiss says he wrote the tune specifically for Armstrong, it was offered to Tony Bennett first, who turned it down.Weiss was also said to be inspired by Armstrong's ability to bring people of different races together. In the song, Louis sings of seeing various events and natural wonders that make him smile, while also perhaps lamenting the passage of time, noting: "I hear babies crying, I watch them grow, they'll learn much more than I'll never know". 'What a Wonderful World' is simply about appreciating the beauty of your surroundings.
