Rick, you have found two old-time greats...and two of my fathers favourites...

Another version just found although i have not heard of them...

Jackie, go back a page for another Jeannette MacDonald and Nelson Eddy song. Marilyne posted it.

I remember the song you posted from around that same time, but it wasn't by The Browns. But I don't remember who did it.

Even Ray Stevens did it (and, unlike most of what he's known for, this wasn't a comedy version)

Almost the end of Summer, 2025.  Here's a  farewell song, sung by Frank Sinatra, lyrics by Johnny Mercer:  The Summer Wind 

Where would the wild west be without music written and performed by talented Italians? One of these days I should attempt to watch some of these movies.

Music written and performed by a guy you've likely never heard of, but you've likely heard him playing at some point. Alessandro Alessandroni was an Italian composer, multi-instrumentalist and whistler who worked quite a bit with Ennio Morricone.

An emotional recitation of the lyrics of LaVern Baker's 1954 hit "Tweedle Dee" with piano accompaniment

"Flying duck, dying duck, roast duck too... If you were hungry, you'd kill him too!" 

Another funny one from Cactus Pryor and company. I wonder what the original songwriters thought of this. This is at least the second recording to destroy this song - Spike Jones and company did a politically incorrect version called "Chinese Mule Train" with banjoist Freddy Morgan singing in a terrible Asian accent.

Even more fun from Cactus Pryor and company. This time he's marrying "The Thing" from Phil Harris' hit song of the same name...
