This film was the first time I ever heard the song "America the Beautiful" and I remember thinking, why isn't this song the Amrican national anthem? I still think that.

[stephenjoeagi]

@simikess It should have been, as it is much more beautiful than our anthem, but it was not selected probably because it was written by an immigrant, Irving Berlin.

[simikess]

@stephenjoeagi I think you're mixing it up with "God Bless America" which was written by Irving Berlin. "America the Beautiful" was written by Katherine Lee Bates and Samuel A. Ward.

[stephenjoeagi]

@simikess I apologise for the mistake. You are right.

That was the time when Hollywood and our dear Country really loved America,

God Bless America.

My favorite part of one of my favorite movies - Love Jane Froman's voice and love Susan Hayward's performance. Love those guys portraying our brave troops also!

I met Jane and Roland Smith years ago after my right leg was amputated caused by a drunk hit and run driver. I love of her music she recorded and the 13 songs she sang to me after a superb dinner she prepared.

Every time I hear "AMERICAN MELODY" and though I'm 59 years young I cry like a newborn baby. When I get to heaven after I meet my creator I want to continue my listening to Jane as she has the voice of an angel. In my own way I am delighted God gave her life and no pains in eternal sleep.

There is a new Book on Susan Hayward By Gene Arceri called"Brooklyn Scarlett" Susan Hayward Fire in the wind" I know the Gene Arceri the Author. Gene Arceri's beginning of the extensive research that went into this book. A journey that took him from Brooklyn to Atlanta, with stops everywhere, and in-between wanting face to face interviews, anywhere he could find some insight into this compelling personality. With help from Hayward's brother Walter.

She was awesome-my parents had her records. Her voice was so terrific-but her contribution to the war effort put her in a whole other place!

Susan Hayward was one of my all time favorites , with movie roles like this i always enjoyed , thanks for posting this wonderful finale clip , Susan captured the pure essence of the great Jane Froman , as she did as well in - I'll Cry Tomorrow portraying Lillian Roth , what a performance !

Take note Drag Queens---- this is Lip Synching at it's Best !!!

I loved this movie and this was one of the best scenes in it - Susan Hayward was wonderful (what an amazing actress!!) - With A Song IN My Heart - leaves a song in my heart!

This movie is captivating today as much as it was back in 1952. A great musical, a great voice of Jane Froman and a great performance by Susan Hayward. One of Hollywood's best musicals ever. Thanks for posting. God bless.
