Sincerely (song)

"Sincerely" is a popular song written by Harvey Fuqua and Alan Freed and published in 1954.

It was originally recorded by The Moonglows,[1] who scored a #1 single on the Billboard R&B chart and #20 on the Billboard Juke Box chart.[2] Fuqua was a member of the Moonglows. They were managed by Freed.

The best-selling version was a pop cover recorded by The McGuire Sisters, entering the charts in 1954 and reaching number one the next year. It became a gold record. In 1988 the country quartet Forester Sisters reached #8 on the Billboard Hot Country chart with their remake of the song.
