Heard of this song when I watched a movie that talks about 40's. I didn't know the name or who sang it but now I do. Great song!

SO, THOSE WHO LIKE BETTY HUTTON NOW,

SPOSED TO BE LIKE THOSE GUYS WHO LIKE

JUDY GARLAND??

OR WHAT???

[anonimoa1515]

@gomerpyleism I don't think so, Judy was more dramatic. Betty was this bubbly bit freaky person.

These songs make me so happy and sad at the same time.

[Comanche1123]

Love it, simply wonderful!

[williamhough111]

Yes, it is by far the best version!

[mobydoug]

Jitterbug Betty had an endearing babydoll tone in her voice until she suffered larynx damage in the early '50's. Then she rehabed and retrained her voice. The later voice is deeper and perhaps more womanish, but lacks that special crazy-kid something she formerly had..... This is from the earlier era, of course.

This song is brilliant.

AND it was in Doctor Who. Which was awesome.

[TheEverfade]

[Sonnyskookoo]

This is by far the best version I've heard of this song thank you for posting this there's not enough appreciation for this era anymore.

[SaddleUp1961]

Betty Hutton sang this song the best. "Incendiary Blonde", in which this song appeared, was her masterpiece.
