Vera Lynn Well Meet Again
From Dr. Strangelove, Or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb (1964). The song is We ll Meet Again, introduced in World War II by Vera Lynn. It s terminally mawkish but undeniably affecting, widely sung in England by soldiers who knew that meet again had a good chance of happening, umm, only in heaven. Slim Pickens is the nuclear cowboy ( Major Kong ). The song here is pretty much as it was used in the movie, except with a twist: I doctored it to blend Vera Lynn s version with one 40 years
