When I was a kid in the 1940s, we had the Artistry in Rhythm at home and I loved those records (old 78s, no less!). But my favorite album is Kenton playing Wagner. His little 16 piece brass orchestra really brings out Wagner's contemporarity (is that a word?).

Heard this song on Ken Burn's "The War" just now. It was played when all the men finally returned home after all that fighting. I cried like a baby.

Yes, I think it was ... ( 1 year ago by A550RGY)

Yes, I think it was Bing Crosby. This version is good, but it's so "happy". Bing's was heartfelt. Like you could feel the melancholy joy of having been through the hell of war, but finally coming back to your sweetheart and letting some of the healing begin.

Indeed it's been a long, long time since the days the Americans were very proud of their culture and looked to the future with admirable confidence in themselves and straightforward optimism.

There is a similar version of the song performed by the beautiful Kitty Kallen with the Harry James band. I love it but, of course,the kenton reed section, wow, man, it's the endsville!

This was my dad's favorite song and he just passed away November 26 '07 Everytime I hear it I think of him and it brings a tear to my eye. "Hear it papa?"

Yu1Yam, you're absolutely right. the value of "soft power" has been flushed down the drain. In the 60's the State Department regularly sponsored tours od American jazz musicians all over the world. I'm proud to to have been a part of Benny Goodman's historic "Mission to Moscow" in 1962 and Earl "Fatha" Hines tour of the USSR in 1966.

More Baby Boomers were conceived while this song was being played than any other.
Too bad the Crosby and Les Paul version is not around, that's the popular version.

Nice song, even though im from the 1990s era the music notes are awesome, especially the Saxophonists. I should see about a way to get the sheet music, I'm also going to use this song for my US History project. alot of good songs came from that era
