The 1957 Buddy Holly recording of “That’ll Be The Day” was certified gold – for
over a million sales in 1969 by the RIAA. The the single was inducted into the 
Grammy Hall of Fame in 1998.

In 2005, the 1957 recording was placed in the National Recording Registry, a
list of sound recordings that "are culturally, historically, or aesthetically important,
and/or inform or reflect life in the United States."

“That’ll Be The Day” became a number-one hit on the 1957 "Best
Sellers in Stores" chart in Billboard magazine.

Wayne’s frequently-used, catchphrase, "that’ll be the day" from this 1956 movie inspired the young musicians in writing the song.

The Empire Strikes Back, the second release in the Star Wars franchise, received
mixed reviews from critics initially but has since grown in esteem, becoming the
most critically acclaimed chapter in the Star Wars saga; it is now considered one
of the greatest films ever made. It became the highest-grossing film of 1980 and,
to date, has earned more than $538 million worldwide from its original run and
several re-releases. When adjusted for inflation, it is the 12th-highest-grossing
film in North America.

(AP) – KFC is bringing back Colonel Sanders as the fried chicken chain seeks
to refresh its image by harkening back to its past.

Sanders, who founded KFC, will be played by "Saturday Night Live" alumnus
Darrell Hammond (above) in TV commercials. The real Colonel Harland Sanders
(below) died nearly 35 years ago, and KFC hasn’t featured him in TV ads for
about 20 years.

KFC also plans to redesign its restaurants with light fixtures shaped like chicken
buckets and quotes from Colonel Sanders hanging on the wall.
