That black girl around that tray is doing a Tina Turner dance.

[gluntford]

[cgdrummer234]

I love how he says "lazy bones, sleeping in the shade, now tell me". Its just hilarious to me. Kind of sounds like Adam Sandler..... 0:28

National Unknown Hero - Peter Ray. Too bad he is not lauded like Others. How can correct this?

Love this song. I first heard it on an episode of Miami Vice about 10 years old. Loved it ever since.

story of my life

Hoagy composed the music, the lyric was written by the brilliant Johnny Mercer who wrote the lyrics (and often the music) for many famous songs

There's a yoga workout with a tray I wouldn't try! Great routine, wonder how many times he had to try that to make it all the way through the number?

National hero, Hoagy Carmichael. He wrote so many great songs and was such a positive force during the war years that we can never thank him enough!

[mankrandall]

This is my favorite Hoagy song ever. Plus, its a real treat to

see Dorothy Dandridge in an early dance performance.

She was beautiful! So were the girls at the piano.

I love this vid--two thumbs up!

[sturdle]

love all of that, thanks H..

5 stars. Too bad Dorthy doesn't sing. Great clip. Hoagy was a great pianist and songwriter, his singing is perfect though not polished.

[Blue0315]

Even though i'm very young and never heard of this guy before.. I must say.. this guy has some very good songs and this song I like very much now :)

[charliebubblesoar]

Is that Lena Horne standing at the piano?

[harryoakley]

No - just an unknown sexy girl!

[Beautifulstar24]

@charliebubblesoar She did favor Lena Horne .

[aprilinberlin]

I hear a little Tom Waits "Rosie"...cool to realize where the greats got their influences

[TatoJamieCook1979]

Delicious.

[mackjay2]

Carmichael wrote this song and many other great ones

[MCPOAirdale]

Wonderful find! Too bad ratings are disabled.

Paul Robeson does a great version of this, I like this by Hoagy though.

[Dyynamo]
