A real film recording of Johnny Marvin singing ' I Still Love You' recorded in 1928. Johnny Marvin was considered to be one of the best crooners of the 20s and 30s and here he accompanies himself not only on the ukulele but ALSO the musical saw. Sheer magic.
Update: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IfmDC19Ybc4 for another song from Johnny Marvin, also from 1929.

I think the liner notes to the THE DAWN OF SOUND-1 (MGM laserdisc) calls it "Nobody Knows But You."

The correct title of this 1928 song is "I Still Love You", music by Milton Ager and words by Jack Yellen. Thus clip is from the 1928 MGM short "A Musical Divertissement."
