It Had To Be You - Dick Haymes and Helen Forrest

[scotnick59]

Now THIS is music: two of the Big Band's best vocalists TOGETHER...

One of the best of our time, the "greatest era". These two vocalists were head and shoulders above anything around nowadays.

I will never ever forget this song. During WWII when my Dad was away my Mom had to rent a small apartment over what was called a road house because of the housing shortage. Every weekend night soldiers from a local army post were in there playing this song over and over on the juke box and dancing with the local girls. I was only 7 or 8 years old but I learned all the words to this song. We couldn't get to sleep until way past midnight on weekend nights but at least the music was great. .
