1. YNWA is perhaps the most famous song in football and is heard before kick-off at every Liverpool match at Anfield. It was written by Oscar Hammerstein II and composed by Richard Rodgers was released in the USA in 1945. It later spawned a number of cover versions, the most successful of which in the UK was released by Gerry and the Pacemakers in 1963.

In 1960, it became an incubator of Silicon Valley and was directly or indirectly involved in the creation of dozens of corporations, including Intel and AMD. These many spin-off companies came to be known as "Fairchildren".

These young Ph.D. graduates were actually recruited by William Shockley with the goal to develop and produce new semiconductor devices.
