As a boy I was even in a very small, minor performance with him.
I couldn’t see this whole thing, but maybe you can:
Appears to be warming up to the much condensed story I heard on the radio a day before she died.
I don’t know that he’s Muslim, but I do remember that his daughters used to take communion.
60s-70s legend?
Isn’t that more ‘50s legend?
It was weird;
Growing up I had heavy contact with his (very nice & gorgeous) family but somehow I didn’t really follow his music much at all.
I later moved to a country where TONS of people for some reason followed his music a lot.
They’d shove the mic in my face, “HELLO DIANA! HELLO DIANA..!!”
They somehow always wanted me to sing that song, since I was a native Engrish speaker.
The tune would come on, and I’d NEVER HEARD that song before..! They’d get this puzzled & downcast look on their faces.
Suddenly it was like letting out the air of a balloon, you know what noise..?
Like that.
His parents were Antiochian Orthodox Christians. Another thing I found that you may find interesting was a Freeper thread which referenced an article from the Globe.

Those who have attended Cursillo over the decades have a soft spot for Paul Anka.
(As Joel Hodgson once said, the right people will get it.)
And we are told the left is not anti Semitic
And he wrote the theme song for The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. Nice little nest egg there...
That “Having My Baby” song used to crack me up, because I always imagined she was literally in the delivery room, all sweaty, in the stirrups, in labor, and he’s next to her singing away while the doctors try to work around him. LOL... (yeah, I’m easily entertained)
Remember all those years ago, ...
Oh my. Didn’t know that. His stock just dropped.
"I told them very delicately to f-- off," Anka, who is of Syrian and Lebanese descent, said with a laugh, "Can you say that on television?" Anka will be performing in Israel for the 4th time soon... "I am happy to be back in Israel as usual," Anka said in the interview. "How could you not like it?"

And both groups were founded by the Muslim Brotherhood Youth Wing (aka the “Muslim Students Association”) at University of Toronto and York University.
Boycott Divest Sanction
At the news that an entertainment celebrity is finally standing up to these scumbags, my heart sings!
I love Paul Anka. Being eclectic I know a lot of tuns well before my birth, used to listen to oldies radio when it was available. Very romantic songs. Swoon for Put Your Head on my Shoulder! I would have loved to sing them for you...O Diana!
Actually I did know Put Your Head on My Shoulder, that one was good.
I think Paul Anka also wrote some super famous song for Frank Sinatra.
