  • People have so little appreciation for all that came before not realizing that we are who we are and use them as a springboard for future endeavors. Jimmy Durante is a classic example. He was not handsome, short or even a good singer but he had magic! He overcame all the Hollywood stereotypes and he shined at doing it. And he was the best at this song because he looked the part of a man in his September years and therefore made it believable. I still miss his charm and humor.

  • This was the song my Mom requested for her funeral. My eldest son sang it. Not a dry eye in the place.

  • I remember the end of his show as he walked through each spotlight and it going off with at the end his famous saying of, "Good night, Mrs. Calabash, wherever you are." The feeling he put behind those words affected me as a young teenager. This song was one of my favorites growing up. I guess in the back of my mind I knew that life had its seasons.

  • @MaxPennington The "C D" stands for "Club Durant," the New York nightclub Jimmy Durante opened in the 1920's and where he and others performed for many years. The musical parts of the Jimmy Durante Show were filmed at the RKO Studios on a "Club Durant" stage set in memory of the old club.

  • When Jimmy Durante died somebody commented, "You could warm your hands on that man". What a magnificent obituary!

  • I loved It when he sang Frosty the Snowman I watch that every year....Steve D

  • Obviously not a great voice but he could certainly put a song over so very well. This is a really great version.

  • My father used to cry at this song and I didn't know why -- Now I know.

  • This has been a favorite for a long time.

    The letters in fancy script in the railings left and right of the window platform, "C D" might indicate what television show this was or possibly the name of the ensemble that is backing him up. Can anyone tell me what the "C D" stands for?

  • How could you not just love him?
