Peggy March (born Margaret Annemarie Battavio, March 8, 1948, Lansdale, Pennsylvania[1])

is an American pop singer. She is primarily remembered for her 1963 million-selling song "I Will Follow Him".[2]


She was discovered at age thirteen singing at her cousin's wedding[2] and was introduced to the record producer partnership Hugo & Luigi. They gave her the nickname Little Peggy March because she was only 4 ft 9 in (1.45 m) in height, she was only thirteen, the first record she did with them was "Little Me", and her birthdate was in the month of March.
On April 24, 1963,[3] her single "I Will Follow Him" soared to number one on the U.S. charts.[1] Recorded in early January 1963 and released January 22, March was only 14 at the time.[1] March became the youngest female artist with a number one hit, a record that still stands for the Billboard Hot 100. The recording also took the number one spot in Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Japan, and Scandinavia.

I WILL FOLLOW HIM was a translation of the French song "Chariot" recorded a year earlier by Petula Clark.[1]

If I remember correctly, Ms. March is one of the favorite artists of former Billboard columnist (and chart-freak) Fred Bronson, who wrote the ChartBeat column for many years.

I hope he's gotten wind of her disco days !
