i loved it - found it looking for Peggy Lee's version but your mom has her by 15 years. Tell me more about her - didn't find much online. Did she stay in show biz?

The mile long cigarette holder and mile long legs - wow! A great video and glad you uploaded it.

Best wishes to your mom - she's brightened my day.

Hey, this is my grandmother singing! Nope, she didn't stay in showbiz for too long after this, but one show-related tidbit I can tell you is that back in 1941 (before this was filmed) she was crowned Miss New Orleans. Today she lives with her husband and has 4 kids, 9 grandkids and 6 great-grandkids!

The singer is my mother Helen Englert. She sang for Larry Clinton (under the name Helen Southern), then for Jan Garber, and finally for Jan Savitt. She is still kicking it at 89!
