...from Frank Loesser's "Hans Christian Andersen". Sorry about the synth stereo - but it's clearer than the 78.

I recall a politically-corrected version of this song they taught children in the 1960s that substituted the lyric " 'Neath her tavern light, on this merry night, let us clink and drink one down" with "With her harbor lights, that she wears at night, like a golden, golden crown."

Sang this in school choir when I was a kid, seven or eight years old - amazing how these things stay with you for all time ...

I would have LOVED to have seen it in the '60s. But in (BLACK & WHITE, then) England, it wasn't shown until the Eighties...

Once a year or so this was on television when I was a child in the Sixties. Our neighbor had a color set and sometimes asked to come over and watch it in style. That was fun.

Danny was rumored to be gay and to have cheated on his wife multiple times with men. Personally if he was, I can't really blame a gay man at that time to play it like he did.

Thanks! I'm listening to my Mom's favourites on Mother' Day. She and Dad came over from Denmak after the war. They were very happy and appreciative people even though they were far from rich - at least in money.
