  • He's so beautiful, I think this is a truly lovely rendition of the song :D Thanks for sharing, like Bixfan said, it's nice to see al and monia without the text on top. Love how he starts dancing as the music picks up pace, what an absolute charmer and a gem al was xxxx

  • He was just beautiful. I agree. Many thanks for your kind comment.

  • I just melt when I see and hear him :D Oh and I forgot to say love the laurel and hardy sound clip at the end, finished off beautifully. xxxx

  • Not everybody recognizes that little joke at the end - well done!

  • A wonderful performance, and it's great to see without the usual "watermark" on it. Many thanks.

  • Many thanks. As most of my other videos, this was digitalised from a 16mm film in my collection.

  • harryoakley thank you this is a wonderful performance...and that accompanist is so right on point.

  • Awesome.

  • A terrific version of this song! I was looking for the sheet music online the other day & I saw that this song was first published in 1912. Wow! 99 years old and still a wonderful song!

  • :D another al fan, great stuff. Yes He's something special, I'm 18 years old and I listen to 1920s and 1930s music, he's one of my favourites :) x
