Charted at #16 in October 1948. Also #5 for Art Mooney and His Orchestra in July 1948 (whose version I have also posted). Jan Peerce originally recorded this song and had a gigantic hit with it. Written by Sandor Harmati, Edward Heyman and Harry Parr-Davies. The other side of this record is "Say Something Sweet to Your Sweetheart".

The worst version was probably by Jimmy Durante - right out of his area'11 years ago

If I had a voice like Gordon MacRae, I'd never buy another drink...Somebody would be buying them for me. Jo's not bad either; however, her voice,lovely as it is, wouldn't fit my larynx..12 years ago

This is one of many recordings made during the musician's strike of the early 1940s Very effective choral backing.13 years ago

Seems like the only one ever able to do justice to this song was Peerce. Shows what an artist he was.Related Videos
