Vocals were actually done by Pat Friday's voice. Lynn Bari just portrayed the character.

Lyrics:

When I hear that Serenade In Blue,
I'm somewhere in another world alone with you,
Sharing all the joys we used to know,
Many moons ago.
Once again, your face comes back to me,
Just like the theme of some forgotten melody,
In the album of my memory,
Serenade In Blue.
It seems like only yesterday,
A small café, a crowded floor;
And as we dance the night away,
I hear you say, "Forever more;"
And then the song became a sigh,
Forever more became goodbye,
But you remained in my heart;
So, tell me, darling, is there still a spark,
Or only lonely ashes of the flame we knew;
Should I go on whistling in the dark?
Serenade In Blue.

  • 'Soothing' is a good description but I would add 'inordinately moving'. I try not to over-analyse it...I just know that there is something about this music which moves me as much as ANY I have ever heard.

    Many thanks for posting this.

  • Serenade in blue (TF2 edition) brought me here

  • That is Cesar Romero, The Joker from the 1960s TV series Batman, on piano. You can make out Jackie Gleason on upright bass in the orchestra. He played bassist Ben Beck in the movie. You can also spot George Montgomery, who plays the trumpet player, in the orchestra. Jackie Gleason later recorded "Serenade in Blue" with his own orchestra.

  • @Rusty350 the talent is everywhere you just have to open your eye's

  • I love this great old movie. Too bad they can't do movies this good now...but then the talent isn't there.

  • This is the version from the 1942 20th Century Fox film Orchestra Wives with Lynn Bari lip-synching to vocals by Pat Friday and music by Glenn Miller and His Orchestra. Glenn Miller released "Serenade in Blue" as an RCA Victor 78 single in 1942 with Ray Eberle on vocals with The Modernaires. The record was a monster hit, reaching #2 on Billboard. The song became a jazz and pop standard covered by many other artists such as Doris Day and Mel Torme.
