Arguably the most sophisticated tune in most tune stacksđ
@benzo4029
Just great to hear this record with two huge hits that went big-time from that star studded picture with young Bing Crosby! Sam Coslow was singing on radio at this time, billed as the "Voice of Romance". Also had been writing songs hits for the film studios. What a life! Love this haunting tune alot! Thanks

Iâve loved this song since i heard it accompany Betty Boopâs 1932 âSnow Whiteâ funeral procession (happily she is revived).
@themac6356
That is a very interesting font choice for the songâs title. Very stretched out compared to other titles. I prefer the Will Osborne version of this song.
@brians78s94
thats a great version
