Thanks very much. McCormack (whose name I may be misspelling) was from Ireland. Back in the days before electronic recording, singers were encouraged to enunciate in extreme ways. Once the switch to microphones occurred, a lot of them were out of a job!
Nice one.

The only Irish accent I can do is a phony one, so thanks!

Great phony Irish accent. Mac is rolling over in his grave.
I'd like to hear Carl Reiner's version.
