Virginia Bruce as Jenny Lind Believe Me If All Those Endearing Young Charms

[TheCTConservative]

Is this film available commercially?

[musicbox99]

This is by far one of the best renditions of this song  - from the movie the great Barnum.

Would love to see the "Casta Diva" clip from the same film. Any chance?

Perfect !!!

Can anyone find Barney Fife's version?

[alohachristine]

I don't recall Barney singing it... but on the Andy Griffith show "Rafe McCallister" sang it amazingly beautiful. We actually own it on one of the Andy Griffith Seasons...but not sure which one. I hope this helps. If I find it I will let you know.

Found it for you.... search here on YouTube with these words:

Andy Griffith Believe Me If All Those Endearing Young Charms

Sorry, his name was Rafe Hollister (not McCallister)

[dreiband]

Well thank you for finding that. There is another scene in which Barney tries to sing it, and gets it totally wrong.

I often sing this song. Sometimes I sing Barney's version.

The Jenny Lind Translation Well she was Swedish!! Believe me if all those Endearing young charms Vich I gaze on so fondly today Vere to change by tomorrow And fleet in my arms, Like fairy gifts fading avay Though would'st still be adored As this moment dou art Let thy loveliness fade as it vill And around the dear ruin Each vish of my heart Vould entwine itself Verdantly still.
