Love this song, the instrumental was insane (good)! And a black female 32 years old, first herd it on Sleepless and now I hear it on that commercial, I think its for Goldfish lol was not interested in the commercial it was this song that got my attention!!!
10/2/1893 nace el pianista y director de orquesta Jimmy Durante una leyenda del jazz, pionero de las grabaciones discográficas que hicieron a la difusión del género , luego una celebridad televisiva y por fin del cine.
If you're here already and you like this song, do you mind sharing your age? I'm just interested to know since this video became rather popular unlike my expectations!
Mr. Durante had an incredibly fascinating life - the vaudeville stage, early radio, early television - and then the motion picture industry! He used to joke that, "everybody wants to get into the act!", but nobody enjoyed "the act" more than this great talent - to our great delight.
thank you so very much. Please excuse my ignorance on this PC it only 5th time in using these things, 64yrs old, again and God's Blessing's my good email is at, mdiv1@hotmail.com
A beautiful song sung by a beautiful man who wore his heart on his sleeve. NO ONE has ever sung this song with the heart and soul that Mr. Jimmy Durante put into it. And that also goes for his versions of "September Song" and "I'll Be Seeing You." Every note, every word was genuine. Jimmy was one of the great performers of our time. He could bring a smile to your face or tears to your eyes when he sang. No gimmicks, no distractions--just pure talent! Bless you for sharing this bettyjoon3!

Who cares if this is or isn't true! Love the music and Jimmy singing it. Like the comment below, you couldn't possibly have watched "Sleepless In Seattle" without loving this at the end!!! One of my fav's!!
NOBODY can sing this song like Jimmy Durante. He didn't make me happy. Instead, he made me cry because in in own inimitable way he reminded me of all the things I have had to be grateful for as well as all of my shortcomings. Jimmy did not have a great voice, but like Louis Armstrong, his voice was unique & in a very special way.
@newmoon51 It IS true. It is very true. Go through each day with the goal of doing something for someone. Call someone, text someone a joke, a favorite quote. Spend 10 minutes every day thinking of making someone else happy, of brightening someone's day, of making them feel special, like they are being thought about by someone else, that they matter. AND your life will change. YOU will be become happy, not just happy, but life will become a glorious blessing. Try it. Prove me wrong.
@newmoon51 I'm Confused Here; You say it's not true? I feel sorry for you as it really is the key to your own happiness. Try it again and remember it will not work if you don't "pay it forward".
@XIXIinGERMANY So do I--in fact I watched it again today and as usual I got a little teary-eyed at the ending and when Jimmy Durante started singing...it gets me every time!
Happy!!
