  • This song is in the beginning of Katy Perrys E.T. video.

  • Bea Wainand her husband, a famous radio announcer Andre Baruch had a radio show called Mr. and Mrs. Music. She also sang for many years on The Lucky Strike Hit Parade during the early 40's.

  • For me there is no more evocative singer than Bea Wain. Every song she sang turned to magic. What always strikes me most is her total professionalism countered by a totally natural feeling and sense of time, meter and rhythm.

  • Born April 30, 1917 (1917-04-30) (age 92)

  • In case you'd write to her, tell her from me, that I love her vocals very much. The Hindsight LP with Larry Clinton's Orchestra from 1937 helped me a lot during a hard time of my youth. For more swingin' sounds, feel free to visit my blog anytime.

    Thanks for putting up this beautiful song.

    All the best,

    Bruno

  • Hi,

    I'm so happy to hear that you spoke with Bea Wain a few months ago. Do you happen to have her address? I would love to write to her. My father played trumpet in Larry Clinton's band and he and my mother knew Bea Wain well. I still have some 16 mm. films of the band with Bea traveling on a bus. If you know her address, I really would appreciate having it. Thanks.

  • yoesacat;

    Wow! You've got some 16 mm films of the tour bus? Larry Clinton was my great uncle, and my father and I are trying to build a library of all things Larry Clinton. I'd sure love to see those films!

  • This is truly beautiful music. I love Bea Wain!

  • Beautiful!!!!
