Hello. Dolly?
The song, “Hello, Dolly!” was strong enough to help keep the musical
of the same name alive for the longest Broadway run in history until
Fiddler on the Roof passed it in July of 1971. It holds the record for

thanks to the similarity of its opening phrases to a part of the song
“Sunflower.” a short-lived hit of 1948.
