Just a great song from a great era. Brings back a lot of memories, think that it came out in 1949. No one ever, ever better than Gordon Jenkins and his orchestra and chorus backing wonderful Patty Andrews. Wish they were producing music like this today.
I have a vinyl "Best of" collection of theirs that I bought in the 80s, and this song is on it. According to the label and liner notes, and my ears tell me that it's correct, this is not the sisters, but only Patty Andrews. At the end, it's her voice alone that was overlaid into three-part harmony, just as Bette Midler's was in the 70s, in her cover of their "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy". I am by no means trying to be argumentative, but informative. Thanks for posting this beautiful song.
Hey you're right! You can distinctly hear it anyways!! The way the "other sisters" are singing sound EXACTLY like Patty. Lol, I can't believe I only noticed this now. But thanks for the info :)
@59Napoli No, they didn't invent it. But they certainly improved upon it and made it an art form. I can't listen to more than one voice singing the same notes. I gotta have harmony in vocals or I don't wanna hear 'em. The Andrew Sisters were just a half-generation before me, but so was everyone else I like.
@59Napoli Axzully, I kinda gnu uwer complimenting them. I think I was in a bad mood from having 'c'n derogatory comments about another UToob video. Sorry 'bout dat. 'Da sisters were a half-generashun b-4 me, but so wuz evry1 else I like most. I haf 2 halve harmony win there're more than 1 singer. Otherwize, the 2nd voyz is jus a talkin' head (not kneeded).
I got a kick out of the 2nd photo in the slideshow...all 3 sisters are wearing lipstick. Patty looks about 7 years old or so. I suppose they were getting ready for the big time early on :)
This is a beautiful song. Thank you for sharing this treasure.
Actually the 2nd picture was around the 1930s, do you believe that in that picture Patty is actually 12? LOL, she looks much younger doesn't she? I'm actually reading a biography on them right now, I haven't started but I looked at the pictures that are in the book.
You're very welcome. I'm glad that you liked this song and I'm glad to be spreading... songs :) Hope you'll watch some of my uploads of the Andrews Sisters. Lol, you don't need to if you don't want to.

Perhaps I am getting old fashioned (I doubt it!), but the voices of the sisters Andrews, to me, seem timeless.

Credit is due to Gordon Jenkins for the great arrangement and for conducting the orchestra and chorus.
