“Cara Mia” is a popular song published in 1954, and became a hit for English singer David Whitfield in 1954 and the American pop group Jay and the Americans in 1965. The title means “my beloved” in Italian. The English singer David Whitfield first recorded the song with the Mantovani Orchestra in 1954. This recording made the charts in the United States, and in the UK it was the first record to spend 10 consecutive weeks in the number one slot on the UK Singles Chart.
