@rogharm Happy to hear from you! Irene was so unique. She was an amazing actress, comedienne and superb singer! I liked Helen Morgan also, but vocally they were worlds apart. Thank you!
@ian1856 You're so welcome! Aside from her magnificent singing, Ms. Dunne was one of the best all-around actresses and comedy performers. She just always seemed no natural and down to earth. Happy to hear from you!
She's so good, this makes me cry!

How beautiful and what a total understanding of this great song she imparts.

yes the song was written for Kern & Hammerstein's 1929 Sweet Adeline, and was one of only 2 songs to make it into the 1934 film of the same name
