This song dates back to the 1930s and was popularized by Bing Crosby, and I'm certain that's where Perry learned it. A good performance, and a reminder that in the mid- to late 1940s, Como's work as a balladeer for Victor was nearly as good as the similar records Frank Sinatra was making at Columbia. The difference between the two came in the '50s, when Frank rebelled against the trivialization of post-swing pop music and Perry went along with popular trends. But Como could still make fine records when he wanted to.

Perry originally recorded this in 1950, and initially released on his "Supper Club Favorites" album in 1952- so you could say this was "way ahead of its time".

If you listen carefully you'll notice this song was way ahead of its time.
