Adrian Schubert & His Orch., Nobody's Sweetheart, 1930

[Sheumais1]

FANTASTIC! Nothing like an original. Lots of great singers have sung this song. A classic. The music of the twenties & thirties was the greatest period in popular music. (Only just, lol.)

[Squarerig]

A delightful period piece;Thank you for the compilation.

Snappy band and a good old tune- that clarinet sounds like Ted Lewis to me- another favourite- appreciate the notes on the music as well- and the visuals are well done.

Thanks for your work on this- its appreciated believe me.

I much prefer Cab Calloway Screeeaaaming the lyrics in that awsome way he does

What fun! A song that seems to describe the classic flapper!

Recorded on January 21, 1930, with a vocal by Harold "Scrappy" Lambert {credited as "Ralph Haines"}. Miff Mole is on trombone, and Charles Magnante at the accordion. Also released on the Perfect and Romeo labels...Clara Bow made a somewhat successful transition to "talkies" at the time [despite traces of her Brooklyn accent], but personal and "professional" problems forced her off the screen by 1933.

Bob Haring, Arthur Lange & Paul Van Loan, also figure very heavily in the Plaza group of MDs as well. Vocalist is probably Irving Kaufman singing Straight. The word "Schadenfreude" = Sad Friend(ship). You know you shouldn't but you just can't help but to love that person - it won't go anywhere. Sometimes "forbidden fruit"

a friend's spouse etc... S.Freud commented a great deal on this matter. Clara Bow is a perfect example of Schadenfreude.

The fastest way I know to raise one's spirits! If your toe isn't patting after a few bars (music!) there's no hope!

[kspm01]

Excellent version!

[dzheger]

Love the cheerful tune and the exuberant singing about Schadenfreude.

[barbcard]

One of my favorite words, though outside of German speaking countries, relatively few people know the delightful meaning of schadenfreude. Especially in America: the idea itself is so

very unAmerican. You know: smile and prattle about universal love and the evils of jealousy, when deep down you hate the...(fill in the blank)

German word taking delight in other peoples misfortune . it that not a German trait? EITHER AT YOUR THROAT OR AT YOUR FEET !!!!
