@scotnick59 That's what I thought ~ but also it sounds like he might be singing:
"You laugh tonight, I laugh tomorrow..." which adds a very suitable callousness to the cynical emptiness of the characters, who can recognize in each other's failure their own futile obsession to snatch the unattainable.

Listen to this one ( it'll be the last one on the video):
'Mr. Fantastic and the Wonderful World of Wurlitzer'
( I have that same organ...now don't think of it as cheesy. John Deluca could have played any organ registration on this amazing organ, as it can play theater or classical organ as well, but he was playing in the pop sound of the day. Someone mentions he used a Wurlitzer Brass Horn- a horn driver with an actual brass horn bell, like a trumpet attached.

Another great Warren and Dubin number. They wrote so many great songs while at Warner Bros. - and after WB. Ted Weems arrangement is very nice - the guitar and muted trumpet....the recording quality is exceptional for 1933. The Hopper pictures really fit the music and the time. Really great video!

Green Day do not possess the talent required to play this.

The recording is great -- one of Weems true classics -- and the atmosphere of the great art adds so much to this. The combination of the music and the art is compelling.
