    My father always sang this song to me on the weekends in the summer when he would wake my ister and I to begin the trek to Michigan where we camped. I didn’t learn until high school that it was an Irving Berlin song.

    There is a story that between takes one of the camera operators said to another that it was a good thing the guy who wrote that song couldn’t hear what this guy was doing to it! I’m just glad we have a record of him performing his own song.

    He also, of course, wrote “God Bless America” which many say should be our National Anthem. (And for many more, already is.) By the way, for a world class genius, he had some wicked sense of humor!

    One of my most favorite songs by Irving Berlin. Irving Berlin was one of the ‘most American’ people in the world, that so many idiots said was non-american, because he was not born in America. His songs helped unite us during the War.
