May be an image of 2 people and text that says 'Did you Know? Buddy Holly and his friends went to see The Searchers (1956) starring John Wayne. Several times throughout the film, Wayne says That'll be the day. The repeated phrase stuck with Holly and he wrote the song that woul become his first #1 hit.'


 

Yes, it's quite well known here in the UK, probably because of the 60's band who also used the film as their name. "The Searchers."
