Love Is The Sweetest Thing
Ray Noble
"Say It With Music"

Love is the sweetest thing
What else on earth could ever bring
Such happiness to ev'rything
As Love's old story.

Love is the strangest thing
No song of birds upon the wing
Shall in our hearts more sweetly sing
Than Love's old story.

Whatever heart may desire
Whatever fate may send
This is the tale that never will tire.
This is the song without end.

Love is the greatest thing
The oldest yet, the latest thing




I only hope that fate may bring
Love's story to you.

9 decades later, we need this kind of music to make a resurgence.

@MrDaiseymay

THE BBC, USED TO, GRUDGINGLY, HAVE A COUPLE OF ONE HOUR SLOTS OF THIS ERA OF MUSIC ON RADIO 2, ( FORMALLY, THE LIGHT PROGRAMME) BUT NO MORE.

@Wolfganger

No chance

@smbsuperfan271

@@Wolfganger do you say no chance because you do not wish for it, or because you don't believe it is possible

@john111257

Ed Sheeran please

@bradmorgan8561

I love this genre of music, it's proper music when music was actual music. Nothing like today's crap, todays tone deaf people only like sh!t with a fast or slow tempo, they love the sound of chipmunks. Music has died fully since the late 90s 💯. You will never hear another amazing artist that ain't auto tuned or using someone else's song and lyrics. The 21st century is full of losers.

88 years later and this beautiful number is still as enchanting to the ear as it was in 1932.
imagine loving couples dancing to this at the time, as my parents did. 😇👍

Hope you're always fine~♡

That's exactly the image I just saw. What an era that was. such contrasts, anxiety over no work, the threat of War brewing, yet it was the age of Beauty too, in the Art Deco era, who's styling touched EVERYTHING, plus modern music like this.
